I've tried searching, but searching for Stall and Idle issues creates a LOT of results, and none of them that I saw after about 20 minutes really matches what I'm running into. I hope it's nothing too obvious, I don't know much about engines, but I'm learning, and trial by fire is the best motivation.
So, my situation is that the vehicle starts, and runs fine, but recently (and this happened about 15 miles after putting a tank of gas in, so I'm not ruling out 'bad gas', but I don't even know what that really means) the car will stall while idling. It kinda does and idle seek, revs up and down and eventually will fall too low and just die.
When under load in gear, it runs fine for the most part, but an almost sure way to get it to stall is if the car is sitting and you turn the wheel, as soon as the power steering starts working, it stalls. Is it an electrical issue? Mechanical? Any ideas
