I was driving home on the freeway today doing about 70 at 3k rpm. When I got into the fast lane and passed somebody, I got up to about 85. Then I put the car into nuetral and just started coasting. As usual, my car dropped down to about 1100 RPM's, then out of no where, my car dies.
So then I start it back up and pull off of the freeway. From then on everytime I would put it in nuetral and let off of the gas, the car would die. It runs fine at all other ranges except idle. I checked the PCV valve and it was fine. I did manage to get it to idle by turning the idle control screw out about five times but I know this isn't the problem. Also, the check engine light never comes on so I'm thinking more in the way of fuel or vacume.
Just wanted a few opinions on what to look for before I start tearing into it.
Thanks in advance,
Andrew
