I was on my way to school today and i was pulling to a stop sign and i put in the clutch..Car died..Tired and tired but keep dieing, got it started went back up without clutching and got brothers stealth. After school i checked battery and alternator both good im guessing battery was at 12.5v and alternator was at 14v. Not sure if 14v is good since its suppose to be in amps. But i need some help i don't know whats going on. I just started car and now its running and idleing fine.

Edit: Forgot to say that i had some bad o2 sensors not sure if those some into play or not.
 
So do i need some pics or something? Im not sure how else to explain it. Im pretty sure nothing is wrong with my coolant..Im almost pretty sure that i dont have a boost leak problem. The car runs fine sometimes LOL. This has only happened a few times then other days it runs great. Also my car does have 153k miles on it. All stock, havent had a probelm yet.
 
Any more suggestions? I will try again to drive it to school tomorrow. After that i guess ill try to make it to advanced auto to read my CEL. Ill post the codes tomorrow
 
Ok, car ran fine today..I went to advanced auto and i guess they do not check cels? Thats the only thing close that i know of...I guess ill start looking at obd2 comps...
