First off i drive an Automatic unfortunatly. Okay so my car runs pretty solidly when i can continously drive without stopping. As I slow down and eventually when i let the RPM's get below 1000 the car just straight up stalls.

Now the car won't stall in first gear but as soon as i accelerate enough for it to shift then slow down it stalls, basically when ever the car goes over around 3500 RPM the car will stall if i slow down. I cant figure out what it would be, i've checked hoses, vacuum lines seem to be just fine. Any Ideas?

Heres what i've checked

Fuel Pump - Brand NewFuel Filter - Brand NewVacuum's - Checked

Could it possibly be the timing? Should i adjust the distributer? Any help would be great guys thanks!

Search for threads related to the IACV. Sounds like it might be related to that. Mine, (manual,) used to do something similar so to band-aid it I cranked up the idle screw until is stopped stalling, which is wrong, but I could get to work and back.

yes, but that would have nothing to do with the fact that he said he will only stall if the trans shifts into a gear other than 1st

well it only happens when i slow down, the trans shifts perfectly, i really hope it aint the trans :P, I did fix it for a few days about a month ago when it was doin it, i put some fuel injection cleaner in and it worked for a few days, i'm wonderin if maybe its dirty injectors? or maybe clogged up wires?

That's not what he said at all.
