Random loss of power, Stalling while idling
I have a 2001 mustang gt that randomly loses power while driving, usually playing with the throttle will make it regain power but it loses it again shortly after, after initial startup it idles fine for 30 sec then the rpms start to drop and fluctuate, eventually stalling the car. If I press the throttle to try to keep it alive the rpms go up very slowly if at all. After I save it from stalling it idles fine. Help.

I was having problems very similar to that with the car trying to stall out, it never actually did stall but acted for all the world like it wanted too, feather the gas to little or no avail and then it would pull its head out of its *** and work ok for a while.
Mine was tossing O2 sensor codes so I went ahead and replaced them and it hasn't happened again. I don't know exactly what the problem was but I know how I made it go away.
