When I am driving in my car for approximately 15 minutes or so, it will start to cut out a bit, on cruise control or without, it doesn't matter. I apply the gas during these periods only to achieve nothing, so naturally my speed decreases as I can not accellerate. It feels like the car is off and I am just pushing the gas pedal down, yet I know that the car is still on. Also, after this time, if I am going for a while and then come to an abrupt halt, ex: stoplights, stopsigns, ect... or sometimes when I go around corners, the RPM's will fall to nothing and the car will die. Any suggestions as to what may be the problem would be great. Thanks Sincerely, Tommy.

Have your throttle position sensor and fuel pressure checked.
