- Fuel Pump Failure: A failing fuel pump can cause the engine to stall while driving. This is especially common when the fuel tank is low.
- Clogged Fuel Filter: A clogged fuel filter can restrict the flow of fuel to the engine, causing it to stall.
- Faulty Ignition System: Problems with the ignition system, such as a bad spark plug or ignition coil, can also cause the engine to stall.
- Vacuum Leak: A vacuum leak can cause the engine to run lean (not enough fuel) and stall.
- Overheating: If the engine overheats, it may go into "limp mode" or even stall completely to protect itself from damage.
- Electrical Problems: Electrical problems, such as a bad alternator or battery, can also cause the engine to stall.
