Default car dying while coasting in neutral

while coasting in neutral, my car dies. i replaced throttle positioning sensor and it helped but it still does it every once in awhile.. when it does die it throws it in limp mode. any ideas what it is?

if its in "limp" mode you probably have a CEL

check it (its in the faq)

my car used to do this, it was bent valves, it could also be a vacuum leak, map sensor, IACV

does your car rev up and down at idle?

and what kind of car is it? that helps alot as well

Pull the codes by jumping the service connector. Click the CEL sticky at the top.
