So my car was stalling at stops and I started by cleaning my maf and my throttle body. Both seemed pretty clean and I didn’t see much on either the throttle or maf. After I put the throttle body back together I adjusted the biss screw. I’m just curious do you guys think the cleaning did the trick or the biss adjustment? I also have a new ISC, PCV, and TPS on the way. I went overkill because I didn’t think the cleaning would be the fix. Even though my problem is fixed should I replace these anyway?

Good to hear your issue is resolved. I suspect it was your BISS screw based on your last post.

Hold on to the TPS and ISC parts if the car is running well . If its not complaining then dont mess with it. Check and change the PCV if necessary.

Still highly suggest you do a boost leak test to check if your biss oring, throttle body gaskets or inner shaft seals are leaking.
