Default car dieing on me need help please.

so a couple of weeks ago i was coasting to a stop sign and all of a sudden my car dies and i am like what the **** like the whole engine cuts off with the power. i did nothing because i thought it was a one time thing. then i read in the forum to clean your throttle body. i did that and i had a place check my alternator they said it was perfectly good. so i was driving at about 40 miles an hour yesterday and my radio dies and my gauges flickerand the car basically dies, but after 2 seconds of coasting the engine turnsn on again. does anyone know what could be the problem???? any help is greatly appreciated thank you.

Donk, PLEASE use the engine forum, please. I have moved every single thread you've made.

Next, if you search the results you get back will point to a few different problems. One of them is the fuel pump ECU, another is pointed at severly corroded engine grounds, and the list goes on. This is actually a common problem (now that I have seen this thread roughly 12 times) and I know the answer is in this forum, 12 times or more

Good luck!

Thanks for your patience, for I have done this quite a few times myself.
