Car Stalling

I've written about this along with lots of others, but here it goes again b/c it's getting worse. It used to just stall when slowing down in neutral coming to a complete stop. Then it started doing it anytime that i had to brake quickly. Then it started doing it almost anytime that I put it in neutral after reaching cruising speeds (40+). Now it will stall out just sitting at a stop light once the engine reaches normal operating temp. Any ideas? Anything is appreciated as this is not only dangerous at times, but just f-ing annoying too. Also, no codes have been thrown.

My buddies car was doing this a while back. I replaced his TPS and cleaned out the TB, it was really dirty. His car idles fine now and doesn't stall.

Id start with a TB cleaning cuz it's pretty easy and close to free. Just need some carb cleaner.

Other than that, maybe IACV or MAF.

ok, i had this as well.... i determined the IACV as the problem...IT ALSO THREW NO CODES!!!

This Started:

after: - 1 coil replacement, another corrected itself, cleaning the TB and sea foam twice in three oil changes (6k miles apart or so)

BUT

Before:
my maf went, and 02 and precat failure


this occurred DURING my trip back from Orlando on the highway at fooking 60 mph in a construction zone so i know how unsafe it was HOWEVER it stopped.... and i had forgotten about this until JUST now...


I believe it is your IACV but as far as cleaning your TB first goes (which you should do) edinanm5 on AIM for writeup.
