Engine constantly stalls!

I have a 95 (3.1L, 140,000) that does essentially the same thing. Does it only do it sometimes? Mine seems to only do it when it feels like it and rarely while I'm driving, only at start up.

I was turning left to get stuff to cook I am a mother of two and all of a sudden my car just turned off while I was going left. May I remind you there is traffic coming. I really do not want this to happen again. Someone answers please!

I have a 98 chevy lumina 3.1 and it just had the starter replaced. Now it shuts off while driving it, it will start right back up again but after driving for a little while more it keeps shuting off. Any suggetions on what it might be. I have also just replaced the pvc valve, air cleaner, spark plugs and changed the oil.

Ok I was driving my 1998 Chevy Lumina it was real cold in the morning, my car clicks when its cold but when car warms up seems to go away. But today I was driving it to work and then the throttle when real high so I stopped the car and it continued and it shut off but then I started it and started back up, my car has been having problems with coolant light coming on and off saying low coolant but I see no white smoke or anything about blowin headgasket so if you could shed some light on my issues would be great Thanks

No check engine light yet but lights are dim until you rev engine then the pulse

Electrical problem

My Lumina has had an ongoing intermittent electrical problem for the past year that nobody can find. At time it will not start. When you turn the key it is completely dead except for the doam light being on. It may start the next time you turn the key, or you may have to wait a couple hours to try it again. When you are driving down the road it will start to quit on you. The radio goes out and the dash light start to dim. You can usually keep it going. I have had it in a Chevy garage and they checked the computer and found no error codes. They told me the fuel pump was very good and could find no reason for the failures and could not get it to fail for them after keeping it five days. Could my problem be the ignition switch?

Yes, the keys do have a transister in them. We have tried both keys and have the same issue.

The car dies often when slowing down to come to a stop. It idles fine. It just seems to shut off. It doesn't sputter or shake, just shuts off. It will start back up perfectly when you try to restart it.

Thanks for the suggestion but I think that we found the problem. Somehow the air intake hose came loose between the throttle body and the air filter. It pulled in some dirt into the throttle body. After a good cleaning it runs great.

Hello there,

For the past 4 days, I have been dealing with my engine randomly stalling & shutting down, usually when I am going at slower speeds or idling while at a light, or just parked. For about the first 10-15 minutes, there will be no problem but as I continue to drive, the car will start to constantly ALMOST stall but manages not to, but when I slow down just enough or am in a state of idle, it will stall & shut down. Usually I can get it to turn back over right away, but there are times where it will automatically stall & shut down again and will have to keep turning it over for at least a minute.

I notice that when the engine stalls & shuts down, three lights in particular turn on. The "Change Oil Soon" light, the "Oil" light & the "Volts" light. However, the car has actually just recently had an oil change, so I do not believe that is the problem.

One light has been on consistently for a while, which is the "Service Engine Soon" light. I have had the car checked out at AutoZone for any codes relating to this light and it is saying it is a code P0401, which relates to the EGR valve. I have since cleaned out the EGR valve & the EGR intake passageway with carb cleaner spray, and managed to get out a lot of gunky buildup. I also took the time to clean the throttle body with the carb cleaner spray & clean the Mass Air Flow sensor with Mass Air Flow sensor spray. This does not seem to have helped in any way, shape or form though.

At this point, I'm not too sure what to do, as I need my car to commute to my work as it is 60 mile commute altogether there & back. If you could help give me some insight, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.
