thank you for answering. the engine light was on for months before this starter issue it needs an oxygen sensor that my husband hasn't put on yet LOL. i went out this morning and checked all connections and hoses, the big black air cover is loose because - someone whom shall remain nameless- but male - broke the snaps
this morning I started it and let it idle for a while about two minutes then wnt under the hood and pushed on the gas throttle and it stalled I repeated the steps and agian push on the throttle under hood and it did the same thing stalled out and I noticed it almost sounded like suffacated, sorry about the terminology. I am much better with children
any ideas
thank you

The CEL indicating does not necessarily mean the O2 sensor is bad. Additonal codes could be present and I would suggest getting a scan done to check if there are any other trouble codes.

Most parts stores provides free scanning services. Let me know the EXACT trouble code if any found.

The air cleaner cover being loose could be the cause of the problem.
VAF ( volume air flow ) sensor is attached to it and any vibrations can cause erratic readings.
