Hello, just got a 91 pontiac grand prix and it dies at stops and once down the road. No warning signs really just dies. I have checked for vaccuum leaks and found none. I wiggled all the wires around trying to find a bad connection and nothing. It has a new fuel pump in it. What would you do next? Would it be the mass air sensor? O2 sensor? Please help. Thanks alot

If it dies at stops try cleaning the Idle Air Control Motor. Also clean out around the butterfly in the throttle bore with carb cleaner and a rag. This will help th estalling at idle issue. Be sure the tune up is in good shape as well. When it dies, does it start right back up?If so the injection service should help.
