Sounds to me like a fuel related problem. What i would do first is check fuel filter then air filter. Check TPS (throttle positioning sensor)<<< that is my guess not seeing the car and also check fuel pressure. Fuel pressure should be around 40 to 55 PSI

    My i ask who only 2 thumbs up.... what do you think it is if you dont think im correct.... TPS IS A THROTTLE POSITIONING SENSOR your foot pedal is the THROTTLE... please rate us all kindly as we try hard to help people out... thank you

2003 Toyota camry stalled at red light once and is now running fine. Should I worry

Does not sound serious as long as the car otherwise seems to be doing what it should. Don't drive if the engine is running hot or it is leaking fluids. Start with fuel filter or faulty fuel pump. Could be other things but if the car has had regular servicing then should not be anything major eg broken breather hoses . I would get a mechanical inspection for piece of mind.

Just turns off on it's own, Wait 60 sec. restart press pedel it dies.

This engine is electronically controlled so the first thing that must be done here is to have the systems control computer tested for fault codes and then do the proper diagnostics based on those codes.

I have a 1997 nissan sentra with 1.6 litter engine. It has 171000 miles. The other day I run my car very low on fuel and went around a sharp curve (345 degrees) when I came out of the curve the car acted...

most likely a bad fuel pump, do you hear it hum when the key is on? fuel pump has to pump 180 pounds of pressure to operatethe motor, some pumps do come on but don't pump enough pressure for car to run.if ou have spark but no run, it's a fuel issue. you wre right o replace the inline filter, that's where i would've started.i suggest you replace that fuel pump. if you disconnect the fuel line at filter@ turn the key on, the gas should shoot out about 20 feet. hop this helps!!

My car starts up n run for thirty seconds then stalls. it stalls also when i press on the gas pedel.

Shortage of fuel is your problem. Please make sure that enough fuel is reaching the injectors/cylinders . And while you are at it please clean the air filters as well.
