CAR STARTS RUNS FOR AWHILE THEN SHUTS OFF. WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS IT SOUNS LIKE AIR IS COMING OUT FROM SOME WHERE. I HAD THE FUEL PUMP, FILTER, SPARK PLUGS CHANGED, AND THE FUEL INJECTUERS CLEANED. IT MADE THE CAR RUN BETTER BUT IT STILL CUTS OFF. AUTO ZONE SUGGESTED TO CHECK THE COMPUTER. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS OF WHAT THE PROBLEM MAY BE?

Sounds like you have a vaccum leak. Pop the hood and look for disconnected or broken or busted vaccum hoses. Of course the car must be running in order to hear the air leak under the hood.

If this dose not help your next step will be to make sure the throttle body is not leaking air at mounting serface.

Let me no if this helps.
