When I come to a stop at a stop light or stop sign, the engine dies. It starts right back up usually with no problem. It happens mainly when it is cold. I live in Wisconsin. And only happens 3 or 4 times in a row of stop signs and then it is fine. If I keep my foot on the gas and break and rev the engine while I am at a stop it does not die. HELP!

Have your idle air control valve looked at and make sure you have a clean air filter.
Check these two issues out and get back to me asap
