I have a 94 ford probe the car for the most part runs great but most of the time when the car warms up and you take off will do great for about 10 minutes and then you come to a stop the engine will run rough and eventually quites. If i give it more gas and keep the idle up the car will run great once i get my foot off the gas pedal shuts off what could be the cause of this????
Try replacing the ignition wires. I had the same problem but after I changed those it ran just fine. My 94 probe was only running on 3 of the 4 cylinders so try the ignition wires that should help

Hi, I too am having the same problem with my 94 Probe and believe it is the 5 to 10 percent ethanol they put in the gasoline that is causing the problem. Try draining the gas out and putting in 100 percent gas with no alcohol and by the second tank, it should be much better.

When you first crank runs great and then, when are not pressing the gas pedal it runs rough and dies.
car will not idle unless you keep your foot on the gas pedal.
