As the title says, I'm having some issues with my idle, or lack thereof.
The car just got done sitting for about a month, this began after I lost all clutch pressure and it would not engage/disengage any gears. I bled the system, and installed a SS clutch line, clutch is fine. While the car was up I decided to begin my fmic install which went fairly well. Install was finished, pressure test done, small leak at 8psi from AFPR. All done, dead battery.
Now.... New optima red top, car starts fine and will idle ok. I'm running a maftin blowthrough and trims are within reason at idle about +5% stft and 0% ltft with my 650cc's. Once the car is warmed up it will idle fine and you can rev it no problem. The problem begins only after I try to move the car. If I simply put it in gear and disengage the clutch without even moving the car will die. Upon restarting the car will no longer idle. It will drive fine but every time I let the clutch out it will die. I back out 10 ft in my driveway and the car dies...
I'm out of ideas. I've checked my electrical connections and couplers etc... No CELs. I'd like to think that I have a boost leak after installing the fmic but while in blowthrough this is a non issue. The car ran fine up until last month. Any help would be greatly appriciated
