Recently I have started noticing a hesitation in the accelerator between thirty five to forty mph. Since then, it, every so often, has continued to run very roughly for thirty seconds to a minute after I turn off the ignition. If I turn the key back into the on position the car starts up immediately. Just the other day it stalled, but started up again without trouble. I am not sure what to do.
Thanks

clean throttle plate on both sides and IAC hole with choke cleaner as it may have the idle too fast and is sticking. Also, check the fuel pressure with a gauge auto parts rent it. See link.
