I have a 1995 Achieva 4 cyl that is giving us a headache!  My 17yr
olds car.  After driving 10-15 miles, will die out when coming to a
stop.  The RPMS flutter to nothing.
   Car has set for a year so replaced starter, battery, coil pack
modular, gave full tune up and  new ignition module.  Nothing shows up
on the diagnostics machine.  
   It has gotten us stumped as what else to do.  When replaced the
coil pack modular it ran great then the next time did the same thing.
   Any ideas would be helpful.  It is a costly guessing game but need
something that he can get around in and back home!  I know someone
else has to have had the same thing happen...please reply!!
thanks, Kayla

Any chance that the torque converter lockup solenoid is sticking?  You can
unplug it long enough to find out if it's the culprit.

check your exhaust sounds like it clogging especially if it sat for a
while
