When driving my car seems to stall. I was told it was the fuel pump, I replaced that and still the problem continues, now I'm being told that it's time for a tune up. Can anyone help me and tell me the real problem

Grand Am V6

  • Automatic transmission

well i thought it was my transmission at first cuz what it would do is right when i would start my car it would start reving up like i was hitting the gas pedal while in park and right when i would put it into gear it would stall and i would have to start it again, i think i may have fixed the problem though. i'll let you know if it makes a difference.

I will be driving a long and all of a sudden the car begins to shudder and then will cut off, I have replaced the coils, that was what I was told was wrong, well the car has started doing it again, It mainly does it when I get in traffic, somebody please help me, I have not the money nor time to keep putting into this car.

I will let my car warm up for about 10 mins in the morning, then i will drive and about 5 miles down the road, i stop and it stalls. It stalls everytime i stop and only does it while in drive. When i take off again to drive, it just barely moves when you hit the gas. i don't know if this is an engine problem or not but it only does it when the car is heated up for a while. it is a real pain in the ass.

problem #1

Stalls due to low voltage. I bought the car used a few mounths ago with no warranty and I noticed the problem right after I bought it. When I drive for about 45 min straight the voltage gauge will drop from 16 to 13, and with all loads on and when I press the brakes, it will drop to about 8 and sometimes stall. I changed the alternator & that still didn't fix the problem.
