car dies when clutch is in maybe flywheel

[slim2005]

ok i have been working on this car since december and have most everything worked out. One of the things left is that wen i'm driving and push the clutch in to roll to a stop the car dies the rpms just fall out. the car just idles down and dies. it has a stage 3 zoom clutch and ACT lightweight flywheel.. if the car is just sitting it idles fine and when clutch is pushed in while just sitting it doesn't die. I talked to some guys at our local race track and they thought due to less rotational mass that it might be causing it to die. ANy help on this???

Are you venting the BOV to the atmosphere or is it recirculated into the intake?

 

[slim2005]

i just added a short ram intake from ebay... so i believe it's still recirculating...

so could it be the lack of rotational mass??????? please let me know

 

[slim2005]

could it be idle air sensor or whatever that thing is?

Sounds like a bad throwout bearing possibly, is it making any kind of clicking noise when the clutch pedal is depressed?

It has nothing to do with your flywheel.

Is it making a squealing noise when you push it in? If its making and noise be prepared to take your tranny off my throwout bearing literally welded itself together. Its definitely not your flywheel and lack of rotating mass.

I drove my car with a bad tob and the tob fell into peices and all of the balls fell out of it.

turn your idle up. Its a little phillips head scew on the top of the throttle bodie.Counter clock wise

i hear no clicking what so ever.. it only does it when i drive it. i can press clutchin when it is sitting and it's fine and rev up and no problem only after driving with higher rpms.
