Try doing the following.

Engine stalling issue at low speeds

This problem is commonly caused by a dirty automatic idle speed control valve and throttle valve. Buy a can of throttle valve 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

Presuming the fluid level is full,it is quite common for a broken reverse sun shell to give the symptoms you are experiencing,as well as some other areas that could also give similar symptoms such as burnt clutch packs,or the torque convertor going bad,and eventually the vehicle will stop pulling altogether.If the fluid is full,the problem is pretty much going to require trans removal and repair.Further diagnostic would include installing a mechanical oil pressure gauge onto the transmission to monitor main line pressure and see what it's doing while the trans is acting up and not pulling,and this does require a gauge capable of handling 300 psi.Also pull diagnostic trouble codes from the vehicle computer (PCM).Good luck.

SOURCE: cavalier dies

you need to find the fuel pressure release around the fuel rail press the little tab when the car dies. If there is no fuel coming out from that point, your fuel pump is going.

SOURCE: rpm running high when park

well. your idle is just high. you can get a screw driver and find the idle screw on the throttle body. . and jsut adjust there , , that is if there are no problems.

now it also maybe a leaky intake. . . . but i think its jsut more of a small adjsutment. . 8)

Hook up a fuel pressure guage. Now with the key on and engine off does the fuel pressure come up fast and hold steady at a fixed value?

My speedometer stopped working

If the speedo and odometer are both dead, you should have shifting problems and a check engine light. The speed sensor in the transmission has probably died.
If the speedo does not work but the odometer does, chances are the problem is in the speedometer head.

Abs light on everytime i stop it dies what would cause that on a 95 blazer

The abs light problem is more than likely a faulty speed sensor as for engine cutting off sounds like a low fuel pressure problem.Check the fuel pressure it should be 60-66 psi with the key on engine off.Also check the fuel pressure regulator for proper operation these regulators are known for causing this problem.

My 96 chevy prism just died while driving down the road and now it will not start. it tries to turn over but wont start>

Sounds like the battery dies, or the alternator has stopped charging and the battery lasted as long as it could. Battery water, voltage while off and then while running if you can jump it.If you think the battery is good, take the alternator off and take it to the parts store and test it, if it is neither of those 2 , then the computer died. Check it out.

Same thing happened to me. I took it to the dealer, no choice. They told me that it is the engine. Didn't want to hear that, but I guess I have no choice.
