1999 Acura Integra LS. After a certain period of running per session, maybe 1/2 and hour to an hour, car will start stalling when I accelerate from an idling position. It will fail to get gas and lose ignition, but I can start it right up again.

My acura dealership has been frustratingly unable to replicate the behavior twice now. They suggest replacing the Ignition module and relay to get rid of the issue. Does this sound right to you?

Thank you very much! I will take this list and ask the mechanics to apply it as a check off list in troubleshooting.
