Hey guys.. well i posted this on a old thread.. but with no response.. Heres the story..

My car stalls ...but when im DRVING!! i was driving down a city street.. and my engined died "stalled" out of nowhere.. while i was still in gear.. Thankfully i wasnt taking a turn or whatnot.. or on the freeway.. cuz it coulda gotten nasty...

And also.. when i start the motor after i have turned it off recently.. the idle goes crazy between 0-1000.. fluxuating up and down.. bouncing around..

And then i try to even it out by tapping the throttle a little.. and it does.. and then i drive it and my stalling occures.. WHILE DRIVING!

Can my problem be similiar to the one above..??

Cleaning the throttle body with carb cleaner? replace the air filter? clean the maf.. or replace it cuz i have a z32 1..? make sure that no air is between the maf and the tb..?? AIV problem? Coolant Temp Sensor? what can it be!!

Any input would greatly be appreciated.. because it is dangerous driving like this . and i dont know the next time that it might die out on me... im scared.. =(

Also.. im running a no o2sensor at the moment.. could that also be partially at fault?

Mods : Sr20 (redtop), megan dp,megan outlet pipe, some nasty air filter i never replaced since i bought the car.. (kragen type), walbro 255 fuel pump, new fuel filter..
