    I was on the way to work this arvo and everything was working fine... until I was about 2minutes away when the car stalled (its an auto) when i came to a stop... and after that happened it almost stalled again... So i had to throw it into neutral and keep the revs above 1000rpm otherwise it struggled like it would stall again. 5 hours later after work, I came back to the car and the problem is still there. I'm thinking it might be a problem with the spark plugs but i'm not too sure.

    Any vacuum leaks possibly?

    Does it misfire or just rev low?

    revs bounce up and down... then eventually stalls.

    Check to see if ur fuel dampner is leaking into the manifold,
    sounds like ur motor is fueling up .

    pull off the vac tube going to the dampner and see if fuel comes out
    standing facing the motor , the dampner is on the left near the balance tube

    Sounds like a vacuum leak to me. Have a good look around for any small hoses that may be cracked or fallen off.
