Maxima is stalling :S

So this is very weird first time it ever happens to my maxima, I left my house and was on my way to school as driving average speak 30 or 40 MPH and everything was fine, when i got to a red light all of a sudden the car shut off? tried starting it up again but it died on me.

I started it one more time and presssed on the gas while in neutral to kick it in to drive any way i made it to school i was there for roughly 4 hours, got back in the car, started it is and the car drove fine!

as i was going home my check engine light came on but the car is back to driving normal

the strangest issue i have ever faced soo far

any help would be awsome.

Read the codes. Should pretty much explain everything. At this point it could be a few things.

My bet is on P1320. Could be a coil going bad.
