Why would my car stall after a cold start. It will run for a bit, then at a stop light, the tach will die, and give it gas it start dying. Checked the fuel filter and it was fine. Could it be computer or coil?

Has the check engine light come on? Have you checked for vacuum leaks? Does it only do it when it is cold?

Let me know.
