car randomly dies sometimes??
coming to a stop at a light or stop sign the car will start to idle really low and eventually shut off (sometimes) ??
other times when it doesnt die, the idle will start to drop and the engine will sound less loud (can tell from open DP)
doesnt seem like anything is wrong, oil level is good, etc.

Ive talked to a few of my friends, and they all say they have this problem, but not as bad as mine. RPM's always drop a little on the downrev, but Ive never seen it as bad as the car will die like mine sometiems does.

Re: car randomly dies sometimes?? (debogsr)
mine was doin the samething. i jus replaced my distributor and wires and spark plugs and never did it again. but wen my car died and i tried to start it again it would only crank and not kick over i would have to wait about 2 or 3 minutes b4 i could start it again. i did this about 4 months ago and still hasn't stalled on me so... to each there own. even the simple things do alot.
