What would cause my jeep to stall whenever I slow down to park or when I let off the gas? It also does it sometimes when I put it in reverse or drive. It doesnt stall when i'm driving, only when i'm almost stopped.

Hi, how long since a tune-up? Have the trouble codes checked. Around here some of the national brand autostores used to check codes for free. Maybe the throttle-body needs cleaning. Idle-air system?

Hi, thanks for the advice, I will try those things out.I did change the idle air control sensor, but that didnt do anything.I also got my codes checked out and it said I needed a input output speed sensor and I changed that as well. Then I went back and got the codes checked again, and it still says I need a input output speed sensor, but I didnt think that would be causing it to stall and cant understand why it is still saying I need one.
