It has had a tune up, plugs, wires for plugs, cleaned injectors, replaced alternator, battery, ignition coil. It stalls going upor down hills and starts right back up. Idles kind of rough sometimes to. It's my Daughter's car. Thanks

I would suggest doing a fuel pressure and volume test

Thanks, But my son in Law did that and also took the gas tank out and cleaned it to make sure nothing was blocking the fuel. He has followed the repair guide and still has this problem.

Thanks Rick
