Possible,vacume leak issue,have the vacume tested,if you have no engine light on.

If engine light is on,go have it scanned,but IMO,it sound,s like the throttle position sensor may be bad,causing it not to idle under load.

Not really that bad,TPS is probably 70 dollar,s and labor 30 minutes,but that said go have it scanned to be sure this is the issue.

Go with nolene. This was my cause it would die when I turned on air and stopped at a light. Clean throttle body and drive on highway for 30 mins doing at least fifty it the speed limit indicated. But clean the body thoroughly before reassembley. The throttle body is the big black box on top of the car in the middle (mine says vortec) it has a big six inch around hose on it. Can't miss it. Hope this helps some one else as it helped me on a different forum
