My Acclaim stalls when driving it at low rpm's, but will run when idling.

if it stalls when power is needed but idles ok it may have low fuel pressure or another problem with the sensors that dictate fuel and spark management by the powertrain controls. needs a diagnostics procedure test by a skilled professional Chrysler trained and ASE master certified experienced technician who worked with these units for 20 years. They fix this stuff daily 8 times or more. The fuel pumps were an issue, but guesswork is not part of a realtime fix that lasts. You have got some miles on it and could be a lot of things. ok
