Car has 205,000 miles. It recently started stalling while driving. Has completely quit a few times, but restarts if you pump the accelerator pedal. It seems to happen most frequently with a slow acceleration, or on an uphill grade where a slight acceleration is required. Check engine light has never come on except when it should at starting. I have replaced fuel pump, fuel filter, have tested TP sensor and Map sensor. Anyone have any advice?

Replace the Ignition Control Module (ICM) and coil. Apply silicone heat transfer compound to the back of the new ICM.

Thank you TxGreaseMonkey. I finally replaced the ICM, and it solved the problem. I've never had one act like this before. It had me fooled. It finally completely failed last weekend. That makes it a lot easier to find the problem. But you called it right. Thanks again. Take care.
