2004 Honda civic keeps stalling out!!

Asked by Heatherannbby Dec 19, 2015 at 06:47 PM about the 2004 Honda Civic LX

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2004 Honda civic lx. Only had the
car for about a year. When I got it the check
engine light was on and was throwing a cold
air Intake code. The check engine light has
gone off since than. A couple months ago
my car kept idling real low. Whenever I
come to a stop it will cut off on its own
without any warning. Sometimes whenever I
am driving down the road my car will start
hopping when I am pushing on the gas, and
will completely shut off. I am able to turn
the car back on again and keep driving
though. I have replaced the spark plugs and
battery recently.. Any suggestions when I
should start!?
