Exclamation Stall out problem?

For about the past two weeks my mustang has some problems with stalling out on its own. Especially in the morning when i first start it up it idles up to one grand then drops down and stalls itself out. It even has done it a few times now where im idleing along while driving and it just stalls right out. I have a procharger on the my car so I have a feeling it might be part of the problem. Anyone else have a problem like this before? Is there anything that I have to adjust with the procharger to fix this problem?

Clean your throttle body and MAF sensor. If that doesn't work, your throttle position sensor may be going.

Will it send out any codes if the sensor goes or is about to?

Sounds like it could be as simple as a batch of bad gas. Fill it up with some Shell and add a bottle of Techron or Sea Foam to the tank.

You might see a P0121, 0122, or 0123.

Well I cleaned my throttle body out with spray and it seems to work fine now. I think though that maybe I only get this problem when it is moist or raining outside. It seems like every time I start my mustang up in a wet enviorment it stalls out. Could this possible be because of the intercooler on the supercharger sucking in moist air? I dont know too much about intercoolers or what they do but it was just and idea I had. Since I cleaned the throttle body out it hasnt stalled excepts once and that was after I had it sitting out in the rain and then went to start it up.

I don't think your intercooler has anything to do with it. Let's just wait and see how she does.

Welp its starting again now. It tried to stall out today when i started it up...it went from 1 grand down to 500 and that sounded like a dieing "fart" and i just tapped the gas in time to catch it from stalling. It also caused me on the way home to lose power while in forth gear. It almost felt as if the drive shaft had no power when i hit the gas and even with it to the floor it barely went. It has to be something with the engine or the supercharger. I know one time way back the first time it happened my low oil pressure light came on for like 2 secs then was fine. Ive driven old trucks before that when the oil pressure was low they felt as if they had no power. Is it possible that my oil pump could be going or a leak somewhere?

I know with the procharger a line goes from the engine to the filter that sends in a light spray of oil. Im almost to the point now where I want to sell my car to get a 04 cobra or such. Other then that I cant take it to the dealer where I bought it because the mechanics their dont know crap and it would be just a waste of time. Plus if its sending no codes or anything they prolly wouldnt even have a clue what to look for. If anyone had a problem like this before any intell would be appreciated to help fix my "baby". Im getting ready to deploy later this summer and I really cant afford something bad to happen to my car before I leave.
