This car has been driving great for the past 6 months.
Have driven about 5,000 miles so far.
Have had no major problems.
Tonight filled up gas tank, went to the store, when came out and start car, car stalled. Tried again stalled
again. Shut a/c off car started up. Ran for about a min. Then took off. Drove about 150 yards stoped at a light, car stalled again. Could not get started again.
Pushed car back into parking lot, tried to start, car started right up. Let car idel, ran fine. Drove strait home. (Had A/C off going home). Turned A/C on drove around the block a few times, ran fine. Got home turned engin on and off several times. When had A/C turned on car stalled 2 out of 5 times.
With A/C car stalled 1 out of 5 times.
I have used lucas oil in the gas, have not put in for maybe 1500 miles.
Any thoughts would be very helpfull.
Thank you
Bob

Given your short write up and description am thinking you might have a faulty main relay or a weak fuel pump. It sounds to me like a fuel system problem tho you should perform a fuel pressure test to check your fuel system components. Good luck
