Any Mechanics want to lend a hand?
mullet:
This may sound off the wall but, I had a Jeep once that kept doing that and drove me nuts. It turned out the battery and alternater was bad and couldn't hold enough charge when the AC was running unless I was driving fast. Every time I would slow down it would stall out. Shortly after I got the alternater and battery replaced the AC compressor locked up.
NTD:
Ok folks...New developments. Started the car today to let the AC run a bit before I took Mackenzie out. When I was walking to the car it stalled. I tried starting it back up and...yeah wouldn't start. Turns over but wouldn't start. Would an EGR failure or the Crankshaft position sensor cause it to not start? I hoping having a total failure now may make this easy to diagnose...

A loose distributor? Hey, on Sat. mornings on NPR at 10:00 am, at least here it is......they have Click and Clack the Tappit brothers.....actually tommy, and Ray Mazzioli, or however it is spelled. Anyway, they are auto engineers, and they have a radio show called car talk, and people send in their car problems, and then they call them, and talk them through the problem, or tell them what they believe the problem to be. Most of the time they are right on the money. They are actually pretty funny too. ;) They have a column in the newspaper also. You should be able to google them, at cartalk.com .
