Car stalls

Yes the stuff we replaced are working well. Today we will change the fuel filter. We had the vin # checked and this car was not involved in the fuel pump recall. I will take your advice and have all you mention checked as well. However wouldn't any of the things you mentioned show up on a computer? Nothing does. Thanks for your help

I have a 2000 Ford Focus with around 180,000 miles on it. Since I got the car I've had small problems with it here and there, but the biggest and most frustrating problem is the condition in which my car runs. I know before I bought the car it had sat for some time (probably because the previous owners couldn't figure out why it ran so terribly) so I immediately had to replace the alternator. The car ran okay for a few months until I started noticing problems with what I thought to be the fuel filter. I had run the car low on gas one day and on my way to the gas station my gas light came on. As soon as the light illuminated my car died. After having this happen a few times, my car started running horribly. I live in Vermont where, obviously, I'm surrounded by hills and mountains. When trying to accelerate to get up hills the car began to buck and would hardly make it to the top. There have been many times where I've been going uphill and the car would slow to about 30 mph, inching up the road, and would then die. I finally replaced the fuel filter thinking that there was a possibility the fuel wasn't able to get through the filter and off to where it needed to go. Unfortunately, after replacing the filter, I noticed no positive change, actually the problem seems to progressively get worse. Now even when driving on the highway going at a decent speed, any time I try to accelerate (even on flat roads) it will rev high and start the same bucking. Just yesterday while on the highway with over a quarter tank of gas, it began to buck and eventually stalled. I tried to start the car and it would turn over but not start. Over and over and over again. It finally would start and as soon as I put it in drive and step on the gas, it would die again. I eventually got it (at a very slow crawl) to a gas station, put more gas in it to just about a half tank, and it drove. Not very well, but good enough to get me home. I don't know very much about cars, so I don't know if its a simple fix or something more extensive. Possibly the spark plugs or the MAF. Please help me!

I also forgot to mention that at one point the check engine light came on for a few days, then went away. Then yesterday while driving the light came back on but was flashing. I don't know if that bit of information would help diagnose the problem.

I was trying to park on a slight hill, and was giving the throttle a few taps and it started sputtering and then stalled. The battery light came on. It has a new battery, new alternator, and new plugs and wires. This is the second time in two days it has happened.

Thanks, ill check that. The battery light came on the second time

my 2000 ford focus keeps stalling. It only stalls when I stop. The check engine light is on and when I took it to advanced auto they ran the code and it comes up running to lean. So they suggested I get a new 02 sensor. So I replaced that and within a week, same thing. I did come to find out that there is two 02 sensors, but I took it to a dealer anyway and they confirmed that I needed a new 02 sensor(the one i've yet to replace) so I bought an o2 sensor and had it put it. They car ran great for about 3 weeks and now the same thing has happened again, more stalling and the same code. Help?

I had the transmission rebuilt 3 months ago, ever since that my car idles rough off and on and has been stalling while driving not sure if it was caused by the new transmission, but when it stalls the car will restart and u can drive it for a while and it'll stall again, replaced the 02 sensor-fuel pump and filter has no air leaks and fairly new plugs and wires does need an oil change though gonna replace the coolant temperature sensor, but if that does not work then what could it be? It's a 2000 ford focus se 2.0 single cam has 104267 miles. Oh and you can let it idle for 3 hours and it'll stall as well.

My 2000 ford focus SE was just in the shop for a new fuel pump.A day after the car would start, it then went in the shop and I got the battery replaced. Now the car is stalling at lights and stop signs, but drives perfectly fine. Any ideas?

I have a 2000 Ford Focus SE. It stalls while I am driving (usually under 35 mph). Just before it stalls the tac bounces and the battery light flashes. To try to fix it we have replaced the fuel pump; fuel filter; and replaced all spark plugs and wires.

My car shakes and shuts off while driving and when I am at a complete stop. What can be the cause? When I turn the car on it is rattling and feels like it is going to die.
