I replaced all sensors the engine light gave.. Had intake system cleaned and smoked to make sure no leeks. Still stalling when I am slowing down or idling.. Recently while trying to drive.. The dash lights and radio went out. They came back on instantly but still happens a few times while trying to get to my destination. Any thoughts on what could be causing this issue.. No dash lights on to read the code. Please help.
