Just to add to this one saturn didn't make the astra model until 2008.What model 1995 do you have a SC1 SC2 SW1 SW2 SL1 or SL2?Also do you have any codes in the computer?Does it only stall in gear?Does it stumble then stall when hitting the brakes or just stall instantly?What if your idling and go from park to drive will it stall then?
