Well here is my problem
my car turns of when i come to a complete stop or when i let it idle for a while it dies the rpms are about 900 and my vacuum at 11-13 at idle then once in a while when i let it idle the rpms go up to about 1300 then thay drop fast to like 700 and its does that like 5 times one after another then it goes back to 900
I put new pistons rings and a slow boy stage 2 head with crower camsgafts stage 2 springs and retainers as well
. Back then I had stage 2 crower camshafts and did the same thing but did not turn off at idle or made the rpms go up and down like it does it sometimes right know.
My timing is dead on all the marks so i know its not that
I checked for vaccum leaks checked out im thinking it might be the IAC but dont know what else to check any ideas

if no many people have this problem what do they do to fix it?
95% of problems on boosted vehicles is because of boost leaks (alright, I made that up
). If you are smelling fuel during postive pressure there is a 99% chance of there being a boost leak (Ok, I made that percentage up too. But it would be pretty high).
