Cuts off when you try to spray

Has this being sitting since last season?
Regardless what stabilizer you put in ETC if so try this.
Remove the old gas and put fresh gas, 91 octance just buy 1/2 gallon will act has a carb cleaner.
Also, pick up a can of engine starting spray.

Remove the air filter and spray the engine starting spray into the air intake. start the engine and give it additional squirts of engine starting spray until it runs smoothly.

Does the cooling fan ever run when the engine is hot? If not, you may have a problem with the fan thermostat.

For the record, spray carburetor cleaner does no good if it's sprayed on the outside of the carburetor with the engine running. That's not what it's for.

Possibly MAF - (Mass airflow sensor). Check and clean sensor and connection clamps. Google it for location on your engine/vehicle model. Test: with the engine running, spray carb cleaner around it lightly. if engine smoothes out, then you located your problem. You can find them on ebay.

Engine stall or RPM fluctuates at idle.

This problem is commonly caused by a dirty automatic idle speed control valve and throttle valve. Buy a can of throttle valve cleaner (do not use carburetor spray cleaner!) from NAPA or Carquest (made by CRC chemicals) and spray it into the air intake while the engine is running, use up about 1/2 the can, engine will try to stall hold the speed up, shut it down and let it soak for 30 minutes, restart and blow out the remaining fluid, shut it down and disconnect the negative battery cable for 5 Min's to reset the base idle control

Could be the ignition coil. Get a spray bottle and put some soapy water in it and spray the wires 7 coil while the engine is running. You will find your problem.

You could have a cracked coil. Get a spray bottle and put some water in it. Since the engine cuts out when running, start the car up and spray water around the coil.

If that is not the problem work your way around the wiring with a water spray. There can be a small sensor in the front of the air intake which is an air temp sensor.

You can go to Autozone or Oreillys for a free scan. There may be a record of the defect in the computer within 30 or so starts. Then the record vanishes.

It might be the fuel filter needs to be changed and it's cutting off flow. Other wise you'll have to look at the pump or injectors.

sounds like the auto choke isnt turning itself off properly but to be totally honest i would need this to happen when i test drive it to diagnose it correctly .

Yes it will help car run better. Take off any hose that goes to card so that you can see down throttle bore. Start car. Grab throttle linkage and figure out how to move it so that you can make the engine go faster. Begine to spray inside throttle body using little red hose that came with carb cleaner. While you are spraying the engine will try to cut out move the throttle linkage to speed up the engine so it won't cut out. Keep spraying all around inside and outside throttle bore.
