It runs fine, except it will sometimes stall out as I approach a stop. After that, it will usually run fine. Occasionally, it will stall when I put it in reverse.
Idle speed is controlled by the computer.
A stuck or faulty lock up torque converter clutch or solenoid can cause stalling, as can a lazy idle speed control motor, vacuum leaks, and especially an EGR valve opening too soon. Occasionally the engine light comes on during the hot weather. It doesn't stay on too long. The engine runs fine. An engine light could be related to temperature.
