Default My RPM's are stuttering

Sup every1,PROBLEM when I come to a stop my LS starts "sputterin", feels like it wants to stall real bad. When I accelerate a little it'll go but not smoothly, but when i hit it, the car runs better, still rugged tho(alot of "putt-putt"). Also I have a slight smell of gas in the cab. (It did stall on me once) Any thoughts? thanks

No1 huh? Well the car stalled on me today in reverse after about 20 mins. of running on the highway. The car "sputters" mostly when I let go of the gas/slow down & when Im at a complete stop the car wants to go as if Im holding the brake n tapping the gas....any1??? thanks

I would consider a full tune-up...throttle body cleaning...fuel injector cleaning...replace fuel filter..the usual classic maintainance stuff.

Unhappy

I just did the fuel filter, oil tomorrow, everything else next week with more $$$. I pulled engine codes --- 13(RPM Signal #2) & 31 (Air Flow Meter Signal). I assumed this meant a MAF sensor, so I changed it & still same thing(yes I reset the ECU) But whats RPM signal #2, any1? And am I right about code 31? thanks.
