Hello , can you shift the car by not putting it in D , but by you going through the gears? I ask because its going to be one of two things: vacuum mod/shift vacuum mod has failed or you have lost a vac line. It may just be the trans had had enough and needs replaced.
Thank you , Quinn

Well, that's lots of miles on this car, althought you service it regularly, the transmission probably was on the last minutes of its life when you floored it.

Have the alternator checked,it needs to be checked at the battery,with the lights on,and ac on high blower setting,the voltage reading should be 13.65 volts to 14.25 volts,any less,it needs a new alternator,have the battery checked and charged up on a slow charge,about 36 hours,this will give it a full deep charge,a fast charge does nothing,it only gives it a surface charge,and it does not stay.If this was at all helpful,please rate,thank you,the electric system can not run all the features,and the ignition with the alternator not charging correctly.

Stalling at stop lights slow when taking off if you floor it engine stumbles but you take your foot off the gas the engine starts running fine

it could be the spark plugs and/or wires. if any of these are faulty it will cause a cylinder to misfire which in turn causes the engine to stumble when applying the gas. on the other hand it could also be the fuel injectors, fuel pump, or fuel lines that are the problem. One thing that will help with that is pour a bottle of injector cleaner into your cars gas tank the next time you fill it up.
