The car runs a little rough, the check engine light is on. When it is in park it usually stays running but when you put it in drive it runs low rpms 500 or below then it stalls out. It will start right back up again with no problem.

Have the computer scanned for code/s-you have a problem within the engine management system that caused the CEL to turn on-This is your starting point of diagnosis,finding out what's going on.
