The car runs fine as long as I keep my foot on the gas. When I take my foot off the gas or when I am slowing down my car will cut off. I then have to put it in neutral to restart it. I have noticed that the rpm's will go all the way to zero and then back to one before it cuts off. I have had an induction cleaning done on it and also new fuel filter and fuel lines. The check engine light comes on and so does the check oil light. Any thoughts to what might be wrong with it?

ya it's probably low on oil an dfule is cutting off, check oil level and make sure it is full then scan for codes and check fuel pressure with a gauge..41-47 psi auto parts rent gauges.
