Hi there, I have a 1991 Ford Festiva GL Automatic. It is my first car and I love it to death but my main problem is that after a few minutes of driving it around town and stopping at a red light or stop sign the car just chokes and dies and when I try to start it up again, it takes off really slow. What could be the problem? I love the car and would like to resolve the issue ASAP. Thanks.
