*MOVED TO '2ND GEN TECH'*
The code will probably help, and please use punctuation and capitalization in your posts. It makes things much easier to read.

I have now thx for the info I hope it is just a bad hO2s will try that first.
Would this cause the motor to act like it was going to stall when stopped at a stop light. It acts like it is missing for just a few seconds then it is fine.

A vacuum leak can cause idle problems. So can a clogged or stuck EGR valve.
