The car starts perfectly. It works very smooth. The RPM when it is in park is 800. When I put it into drive the RPM falls to 600. Is that normal? Also, the engine works fine I did a tune-up, replaced spark plugs and wires, I put in a new coil and gas filter. Some days the cars works good like recently I drove it for 2 days and then the engine stalled out during a drive. After 30 seconds the car was able to be restarted. This happens almost ever other day sometimes twice a day. Please help with anything you can...any ideas?THOMAS.

Hi siwytom1957, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

This stalling during a drive is it on a stop/light or while cruising or decelerating to a stop?

The idle speed is okay calls for 540-840rpm
