Engine Performance problem
2001 Chevy Malibu Engine Size unknown Front Wheel Drive Automatic 79000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
My car stalls intermittently while driving and acts as if it is grasping for air. I have trouble starting it, but once it gets going it is fine for awhile. Any stopping could cause a stall at any time.

It is as if my car is choking or gasping when it stalls.

What could this be?
