After starting my car the engine runs fine for about 1 minute then it starts to shake a little, then stalls. it also has a funny egg smell. At first I changed the mass air flow sensor and air filter but that didn't work. changed the fuel filter and that didn't do anything
Initial I was driving and their was hesitation when going above 65 miles an hour then it got worse. it start fine but stall after driving 100 feet. What could it be?
