posting for someone that is having a little problem with their soarer

it's an automatic... and it stalls most of the time when you come to a stop... he says it stutters a bit then shuts off. so he has to put it in neutral and keep the revs up

he says it runs perfect once driving, and when floored it pulls strong all the way... just when he comes to a stop

any ideas?

I'm not a mechanic by any means but I have heard about problems with these types of cars. If your sitting in the front left hand seat(drivers) take a look right in front of you. There should be a circular looking thing there that you can turn clockwise or counter clockwise. If you notice that there isn't anything like this there you might have to get into the front right seat(passenger). If you notice that the circular thing that you can turn clockwise or counter clockwise is in that seat than that could be the reason the car's not running right. Hope it helps:dunno:

Try the fuel pump ecu, could be a vacuum leak too.
