Unhappy My Z28 stalled in the middle of nowhere

my Z stalled today when i was turning and slowing down. when i restarted it up it didn't sound as powerful as the first time. Im thinking its due to the hot weather (80 something) but not sure. Trying to figure what can cause it to stall like that. PLEASE HELP anybody's 2 cents are welcome.

shouldnt stall under any cicumstances.......but, my car has felt really weak and sounded weak, turned out peace of airfilter ripped away and was caught in MAF screen, sounded weak when i reved and stalled out after it first happened...i severely doubt this is your problem though, but worth a check...maybe you'verecenetly done induction work and something came loose?

yes the SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT is on, but got it check about a month ago and they said it's only electronic error and they can't turn it off

get a manual and throw the codes yourself. If its stalling like that then the pcm will usually tell you why. If your car was an ob1 i could tell you how to throw the codes, but im not sure how to on an ob2. Maybe shoebox will chime in
