I've been having some vaguely similar-ish running issues lately since I've had the HJ out driving again. It's inconsistent, but I've had a number of times where, as I'm slowing down (actually braking) the car dies when I come to a stop, or when I'm just barely rolling still. Good example: Driving along in 3rd, slow down to take a corner, drop it down into 2nd, and POOF, no more runny-runny. The car is idling a bit high right now, that much I know, but I'm not really a "car guy" in the sense of being able to diagnose engine issues...
Any thoughts?
