Check to make sure the fuel pump is providing enough pressure. Also, check the fuel pressure regulator. NOTE: If the engine doesn't restart right away, check to make sure you are getting spark and fuel at that time.

If vehicle can be restarted but not hold idle, check the IAAC. Check for vacuum leaks between throttle body and MAF.
