After engine is warmed up...., and car comes to complete stop, i.e. stop light, and when I start to accelerate the engine starts stalling, major hesitation, this is especially noticable when making turns at interections---left turns are a nightmare. I quit driving it. A friend said if could be the diistributor coil....Thanks

Hi Greg47,

Thank you for the donation.

Problem seems to be from the idling system and the common problem for this model is the Idle Solenoid Control or MAP sensor.

Get the throttle body and ISC cleaned/checked and retest.
