2001 Honda Civic 107k Car was running and now stalls
2001 Honda Civic 107k Car was running and now occasionally starts and idles shakes and stalls. It broke down, we knew battery had some issues and was 4 years old so that has been replaced. After replacing the battery yesterday it stalled approx. 3 times and then it ran. We drove it 15 miles on freeway home, now it will not stay running. Keeps stalling. The teen went off roading in the car don't ask....Blew out air filter but not much else, don't know where to start. Replaced Transmission 2009, replaced timing belt 2009.

Yes and No. The EGR can cause the car to idle rough and or stall. I am assumeing the check engine light was on and set code for EGR and Catalytic Converter. If the engine isn't running right it is possible the cat won't work right due to improper air fuel ratio that the EGR is causing. To do repair proper the EGR should be fixed then clear codes and see if the code for Catalytic Converter. There are other reasons that would your car to idle rough or stall I am just assuming that this mechanic got codes or tested the EGR right.
have you checked for moisture in gas tank..get a bottle of gas line antifreeze and put it in gas tank and see if it drives better if it does then fill it up and try to keep your tank always no lower than 1/2 and 1/4
it seem our idle air control is dirty when compressor kick in idle air race up get stuck and all of a sudden come off and and on again that why you fell the idle goes up and down remove plastic cover on top of throttle body buy a can off air intake cleaner start the engine and stray the air intake cleaner inside the throttle body give gas at the same time because engine will whant to stall spra inside untill very clean try it out if engine stall dont worry go inside floor the gas pedal and it will start again it gonna shake its normal hope it5 help you fixya our post thanks pierre if any question dont hesitate
