It only comes to a stop and die when really floored on the highway...in normal driving, engine purrs like a kitten, and it never stalls or dies......very smooth and stable idle....this is a very well maintained car in general.....on acceleration, it is either starving for fuel or suffocating....

Maybe the problems are unrelated as you said....
