Do you have a logger to check throttle position (compare cold vs. warm engine) and coolant temps?
The cable was tight and I loosened it (a few weeks back). It fixed 99% of the high idle. Can still idles a little higher when warm. IE: cold idle 700-800 RPM, hot idle 800-1100 RPM.

TPS cold and hot is 0-1% via pocketLogger.

Coolant temps are high but under control. 199-222 (cruise and idle depending on outside temp). I'm working to resolve this one soon.

The BIGGEST problem is the car stalling out when I push the clutch in, ESPECIALLY when the RPMs are higher. I come to a stop sign press the clutch and the car dies. The only thing I can do is press the clutch and throw it into neutral and RELEASE the clutch before the RPMs drop to the point where the car stalls. If I release the clutch quickly then it only stalls about 5% of the time (worse when cold). If I press the clutch and HOLD it while the RPMs drop then they will drop until they hit 0 and the car dies.

This is really REALLY annoying because when I'm stuck in traffic then the car dies on me every 50 feet and I have to start it back up.

Any ideas?

Tom
