O.K. I have been dealing with this for some time now and cannot figure anything out. If my engine sits at idle for any length of time, it will die. Not stumble and die, but just stop running. No codes are set, no check engine light. Recently I have replaced and O2 sensor, TPS sensor, cleaned the IAC, replaced plugs and wires, ran a 1/2 of a can of Seafoam through the brake booster vacumn line and dumped the rest in the tank, replaced the thermostat, and replaced the fuel filter. Any ideas on how I can track down the problem? Could it be fuel pump related? Lokking for possiblities????
 






Fuel pump relay under the hood? Fuel pump itself may be cutting out? Does it start right up immediately after it stalls?
 






Starts right back up just fine. Is that an indication of fuel pump relay?
 






It could be the relay cutting out momentarily. You can try replacing and seeing what happens. Another possible item could be the ignition switch.
