1993 Ford Probe mileage: 94,000.The problem that we have with our car has been happening for approximately the last ten months. On occasion while my wife is on her way to work or coming home at the end of the day the car will stall. This only happens when she disengages the clutch and the car is in the idle mode.Please keep in mind that this only happens on occasion. We have taken the car to four different places to have tests done to the car (i.e. elec. diagnostics). Only until tonight when she asked me to take the car out for a spin did the problem happen to me. I know that my description may be a bit vague so please e-mail me with any questions that you may have.Thank you for your time.

Your car may be ready for a major tune-up including spark plugs, plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, fuel filter and air filter.Also, perform a fuel pump pressure test.Clean fuel injection system including throttle bore, idle speed control motor and passages.If problem still exists, scan computer for trouble codes
