Engine Performance problem
1998 Volkswagen Jetta 4 cyl Automatic 139000 miles

My Jetta turns on but as soon as you take even a little off of the gas pedal it turns off. I don't know what this could be and how to fix it.

Check the throttle valve control module/mass airflow and throttle position sensor.
