When I come to a complete stop the engine sounds like its starving for fuel and you can see the rpm gaug going from 900-400 then it trys to go back up and sometimes it makes it up to 900 then drops back down under 500 a few times and then stalls.

I just did an engine on test and got:
136
332
129
167

I dont know much about cars.
Please help.

Sounds like you have several problems:

136 - O2 sensor always reading lean - probably bad sensor. If over 60K miles, just replace both of them. This can also be a vacuum leak on one bank. Such a vacuum leak can also cause the stalling issue.

332 - EGR system failure. SEARCH on "332" and my user # for diagnostic procedure. Most likely either clogged EGR passages or bad DPFE sensor.

129 & 167 - Most likely incorrectly execute dynamic response test. It takes some practice...

Stalling at idle - Usually the IAC valve. Clean it. If that doesn't help, replace it.

Welcome aboard! Poke around and take advantage of several years worth of prior posts. It's not very often that a completely new problem comes up. Also, refer to the FAQs at www.shotimes.com for more information.

If the car hasn't had a 60k (or 100K) please consider doing that soon. It may or may not solve your problems but it is probably due! :)

Ok It's still stalling after all this work I just did.

I replaced the AIC and cleanded all the carbon out of the passages of the throttle body when I had it was off.
In the past 2 months it got a new water pump and timing belt.
I also replaced the CANP valve.

And I still have the slalling once it warms up every time I stop.
