I love my car. It just started to give me a problem. At an idle it stalls out or sometimes feels like it is going to stall out. Can anyone tell me why my car is doing this????

My '92 Mazda is doing the same thing. I was told to check the Air Intake Control Motor and some of the things that go with it.

Is it a 5-speed and do you notice it after coming off the freeway? Also, does it work when your auto-choke is on? If so, sounds like the same problem. I'm taking mine to the shop tomorrow, I'll let you know what they tell me.

I found the problem. It was the tps Throttle positioning sensor and also the idle control that is positioned behide it was stuck. My car runs great again. I hope this will help if someone else has this problem. :D :D :D
