What was replaced in the tune up? Usually the coil paks cause these types of issues. Also fuel filter or fuel pump will allow enough fuel to start and sputter like you describe.

SOURCE: new suzuki swift gas pedal too light to press

use a stronger spring,have a look under dash and you will see the accelerator pedal has a return spring,either shorten it for more resistance(heavier feel) or replace it,easy to fix,you can even put a little return spring at the throttle end on the engine if youre careful it doesnt foul anything

SOURCE: 83 Rx7 stalls when cold unless I keep applying pedal pressure

these cars are carburated motors and need around 10 minutes to warm up because they operate at higher temperatures.

SOURCE: 2000 Toyota Avalon stalls when foot is not on gas

Sounds like the IAC valve is carboned up. This valve can usually be removed easily with 1 connector and 2 bolts. It is how the engine controls the idle speed. Many times a can of carb cleaner and working the piston back and forth on it will free it up for many more miles.
Turn on the a/c at idle. does the idle speed change?

Reset oil change light on citeron nemo 2011

Reset oil light after service... that is very important. And don't skip the oil change either.

1-turn on the ignition key,
2-press the gas pedal and hold it,
3-press the brake pedal 7 times without relesing the gas pedal,
4-keep pressing the gas pedal for 60sec.
5-Release the gas pedal and turn of the ignition key,
6- Wait for 60sec.
Then turn on the ignition key and start the engine. Check if the service/oil change light turned off.
That's it. Worked on my 2011 nemo van.

2002 Free Lander stalls out after starting.

It sounds like you have water in your tank and/or bad gas. There are a few Chemicals that can help to remove it.... Dry Heet is one of them, but there are others. I would try to drain as much as you can first, as it seems to be floating on top of the gas. Then add the fuel cleaner. This should help. I would also replace the fuel filter if you cannot clean it out.

Switch gas Stations....
Thank you for contacting Fixya. Does this help? Let us know.

2007 Mitsubishi Endeavor stalls out when idle. Recent tune up (NGK iridium spark plugs used). Initially wasn't stalling out but running rough during idle. Check engine light was on prior to tune up...

Most of the times is just an air leak from a vaccum hose. Also since the code its for only cylinder #6 I would suggest to take a look at the coil pack. They do go bad and it will affect your cat converter reading due to the fact that gas is not being burned on that cylinder.
I hope this helps!

2002 Malibu stalls while driving, doesn't over heat. But can start smelling gas fumes before it stalls. usually wait about 5 mins then restarts. in higher elevation runs fine but in lower elevatio

It sounds like the catalytic converter could possibly be almost completely plugged up not allowing the exhaust to leave the engine like it should. It just builds up in the cylinder head and when it gets too much in it built up and there's no where to go, it'll stall the engine. By letting it sit for a few minutes, it gives the exhaust time to find a way out and the car will restart.
