no engine size told.
well there are like vast causes of this
my engine starts but stalls.
even parked in a drive way , transmission in pARK?
The macro causes are 3. (100 yeas same gas/petrol) rules bad spark
bad fueling (even bad fuel)
bad engine (cam belt slipped) this fail trumps above.
a tech tests them all in order.(based on age, and miles) saves time.
no miles on car stated 100k 200k, 300k miles or more?
when was the last tune up (filters all, spark and belts)
not told. and matters huge.
does it fail cold and hot engine both, or can never get it hot
hot = means normal engine temp, 180f to 200f
is RPM started up, cold 1500RPM or less (or happens too fast to tell)
does engine die just as you shift to DRIVE.?
failures parked are the most easy to find, (moving fast failures hard)
tell more and get more, tell all things the engine does, in all modes of use. AND WHEN AND HOW LONG IT TOOK TO FAIL.
or hot engines turned off will not staRT (BUT CRANKS FAST)?
THERE IS A STORY HERE BEGGING TO COME OUT BUT DID NOT.
THE MICRO LIST IF CAUSES ARE HUGE.
EVEN a bad wire vast.
how soon after it starts does it stall,
1second 1 hour ? what, ?
some engines fail hot soaked, starts cold, but never hot
WHY NOT GET A SHOP TO FIX IT. IN USA AN ASE SHOP !
You only need to change the cams if they are worn and rough. The cams having nothing to do with the EGR. You can tell if the EGR is working right by starting the engine when cold, and touching the EGR. At idle it should remain cool after the exhaust manifold is very hot. But then as soon as you rev the engine a little, it should instantly get hot. It is does, then it is working fine. If it is stuck open, then it will heat up even at idle. If it is stuck close, it will never heat up.
Must be cold out! if you never get any heat on gauge check engine open hood and see how hot engine is getting you will know if engine is at operating temp (170-195 degrees). if yes is there a thermostat? if there is one it could be stuck open even then you should still have at least a little heat. change thermostat last resort a little cardboard in front of radiator will get you by in a fix. Exercise caution with cardboard watch gauge don't want to over heat engine...
There appears to be a thermal movement of choke mechanism that comes about once vehicle is warmed up. Check the chock connections, hot water pipe and linkages tight or clear.

Check theromstat, also test coolant probe be sure it is sending good signal. Also you may need to oversize the waterpump pulley. Be sure the pump is moving the coolant .
I would focus on what's making your car hot.... a bad catalytic converter sounds like what you have...It's before the muffler..It gets clogged up...makes car run a little hotter and harder to start....Google it
