Car will stall going down the road like you run out of gas, but it starts back up after a few tries. This may happen again with in two miles or two days. Runs great when running though.

Hello, I am Danny.

It sounds like you should have the fuel pressure checked. The fuel pump may be weak or on its way out. I have attached a tutorial showing what is involved. If you do not have access to a Fuel System Pressure Tester any local auto parts stores (Pep Boys, AutoZone, O'Reilly's) have a loaner program that will rent you one. Your cars fuel pump should be putting out 47-54 P.S.I. Hope this helps and feel free to ask any questions.Thanks for using 2CarPros.
