99 Chevy Malibu STALLS when going over big BUMPS in road HELP

My 99 Chevy Malibu 6 CYL auto trans runs fine EXCEPT.

When going over bumps such as railroad tracks @ 35mph or more sometimes the engine stalls.

The red lights on the dash all seem to go on and the fuel gauge goes to empty,

I shift into neutral and the car starts right up and keeps going as normal with no further problems. No check engine light comes on.

This raerely happens and the bump must be substantial for the car to stall.

This has been going on for over a year and the situation hasn't deteriorated.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

I would get under that hood and start jiggling wires with the Engine running to see if you can duplicate the stall while standing still. If thats not it, then see that all spark plugs are tightly seated(engine off, of course).
