Hi Ian,

What is the model of your vehicle?
Is the Check Engine light showing?
Are you able to keep the engine from stalling by applying throttle pressure?
Did this happen after any repairs?
What is the idling speed when it does not stall?

You listed the year as 2000, is that correct?

EFI engined vehicles would normally have a self diagnostic terminal. It has been a long time since I last handled such a vehicle and my assistance would be limited.

I will check through and see if I can come up with anything on this.

In the meantime, you can browse through the link below and see if you can come up with anything.

When the CHECK engine light is showing, an error has been detected in the engine management system and you would have to retrieve the trouble code to know what is causing it.

Most parts stores provides the scaning services frre, get it done and let me know the exact trouble code.

If you refer to the link provided in previous post, you would be able to find a link that explains the Check Engine Light.
