My 94 lexus es300 drives excellent but I t will stall after driving for a few days. When I start it back up it has no power and it will stall when I have to stop. Then all of a sudden it will crank but it shuts off immediately. When I press on the gas it sputters like it is gasping for air. I had the catalytic converter replaced and both 02 sensors. It wiil do this for several days and then it will start and run perfect for about a week then the cycle starts over again. My car has been in the shop for 3 weeks now because they can't figure out the problem. I just wanted to get some other opinions.

Have them to check the PCV and EGR valves, also the cam and crankshaft sensor to include a fuel pressure test.
