It dies when it iddles. It was doing it everytime it iddled then I replaced the coil and it was fine for a day and it started up again. It doesnt do it nearly as much but it has continued.

Is your check engine light on? Does it flash? When was the last tune up? Cap rotor and wires, plugs?

Ok. These are notorious for having bad coil wires. I know you said it was just done. Look closely at the coil wire and check for arc marks. The arc marks are white and powdery on the wire. Also cap and rotor.
