Default engine cutting out

I have a 96 Sunfire with a 2.2 L engine. Lately the car has been cutting out on deceleration. The engine stalls when warm and starts up ok when cold. Engine will start up immediately after it stalls out. Already replaced the ignition module, IAC motor,TPS, ignition switch and fuel filter. Any help is appreciated!

sounds like the fast idle solonoid isn't working. this boosts the idle when the ac or deforster are running. it should have a wire running to it near the air inlet/injector . sorry i haven't worked on one of these lately.

Out of curiosity, what was the last repair done to the car? Helps in diagnosis

The stalling problem started on its own a few months ago. It is strange because before this problem started the car was running solid for a long period. Since the stalls started I have tried a number of repairs.The last repair I tried on it was an IAC motor. This has not solved the problem. I have tried pretty much everything except replace the fuel pump at this point.
