After i bought my car it started surging and soon after that it would occasionally stall/die while i was backing up. After it dies i put it in neutral and start it back up and then the power steering would start making loud noises as i turned. And now the surging has gotten worse to the point that it sometimes stalls in the middle of the road. with winter coming up i really want to fix my problems. any help?

Start looking if its in need for a tune up
