First time I caught it, I thought I stalled the car. It almost died on me 3 times today. I was slowing down and the engine bogged HARD and almost cutout.

I am thinking oil pressure.

My pioneer head unit (DEH-7700mp) has a volt meter built in. Its showing anywhere between 13.2 to 13.7 volts. When I brake sometimes, it sinks to 12.0 and lower and starts to shut down. I have to rev to keep the car alive. This only happens sometimes though.

you mess with your MAF/intake at all?

I drilled about 30 holes in the stock intake box

samething happens to me...

i narrowed it down to a few things

1. cap and rotor are corroded
2. maf is filled with gunk (clean it)
3. fuel filter is clogged


i really think its #1 or #2.


there have been a lot of threads on this... search and there might be ur answer.
