Me again...so yea..I was just driving my car and it stalled at a stop sign..it started up after a few trys..I started to go again..and it stalled..so I took it home. On the way home it was chugging and the engine light was coming on. Is it my fuel filter or something else..?<BR>Maybe I have the same problem as Aiden..A vacum leak? Is that whut it sounds like?

in your first post you said it was happening at cruising speed, thats probly the egr. but if its happening at stop signs, its likly a fuel or a spark problem. i'm pretty sure the fuel filter wouldn't set off you engine light. give everything a good visual inpection, check spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, vacuum lines. also you could try pulling the vacuum line off of your fuel pressure regulator to see if any fuel leaks out, if it does your regulator is shot.<BR>I hope some of this helps man
