After the car warms up (approximately ten mins of driving) it begins to buck and also will stall when I stop. Also the rpms will sometimes rev up. I replaced the air cleaner and the spark plugs.

Check fuel pump pressure to make sure it is within spec. If it is good, check the crank sensor. NOTE: If the check engine light is on, have the computer scanned for trouble codes. Most parts stores will do it for free. That way you will know where the problem is coming from.

There are directions on our homepage under the DIY section for checking fuel pump pressure.
