Car drives fine but when I slow down to stop it ideals weird and dies?

Added (1). It is a 1999 Ford Escort. About 117,000 miles. Check Engine light is on and just came on due to this problem.

Car drives great, transmission shifts smoothly but every time I come to a stop the car will idle erratically and die most of the time. If I put it in neutral and hold the peddle at 500 RPM the car does not die. Any help would be appreciated since I do a lot of work on cars by myself. I'm thinking MAP sensor or O2 sensor maybe.

I had than happen to me same car and year will it was a mercery same car differt name it is the air idle control valve

  • My car turns off when I slow down or stop? I have a 2008 Ford Focus. The car turns off when i'm going fast and trying to slow down quickly. It does let me turn on the car right away but its annoying how it keeps turning off on me Can someone help me identify what it can be
  • My car is leaning to the front right wheel but still drives straight? How do I fix it? Ford focus 2005 4 cly it doesn't effect my steering but I can head freaks and sqeeks when I hit small bumps. I also notice in the car It leans forward to the right front wheel. Seems alright but I wanna get it fix if it can get worst. I'm guessing it's a strut or spring suspension broken. What do you guys think?
  • My 1996 f-150 dies when going down highway? I have a 1096 ford F-150. Starts and runs fine but uses only the battery. Naturally, when the battery goes down the truck dies do you know what is wrong with it?
