Default almost fixed it.

i was talking to a guy who works at a automotive store and he said it was the ignition module ($40 part) so i bought it and put it in. The car ran great for a whole day and that nite it did it again. it will only happen when i'm almost at a complete stop and it wants to shut off. if it does shut off it will start fine but as soon as i put it in rev. or drive it dies! i try to restart it like 12 times and then it drove fine and i got her home, i just couldnt come to a complete stop or it would die! WTF!
