so i took my mustang out to santa cruz for the weekend and while cruising around town I would come up to a stop sign and not be in gear and the car would just die. Other times I would be in gear with clutch pushed in waiting to go and it would die. Any ideas?

it could be the vehicle speed sensor, vss, going out. kind of rare, but it does happen. it's screwed onto the side of the transmission.

no i dont think its the mass air flow because ive had to replace it before and it did a different thing when it was going out, thanks for the replied ill look into it more.
