hey guys

So I'm having problems with my car stalling when I'm driving along and lets say i break for a light and the rpms drop down to idle. It doesn't happen everytime though. seems to do it more when the engine is not at optimal temp.

whens it stall if your watching the rpms it can't catch it's self when it drops to idle.

any ideas?
 
Is your battery good? Is your alternator good? Check the voltage at the battery and at the alternator. Is your BOV recirculated? Check to see if you have any vacuum leaks as this could cause the car to die as well. Also check the electrical grounds. Lightened flywheels MIGHT cause this depending on how quick your pushing the clutch in and at what RPM although I doubt this is the case.
 
alright thanks man. I'll check the alt and bat, and for vacuum leaks. BOV is recirculated and flywheel is stock
 
Mine does the same thing. Found out on my fpr the vacuum line had been rerouted from the switch on the firewall directly to the Intake mani. As soon as i got that connector on the firewall hooked back up and ran the vacuum lines correctly it quit doin the stall coming to a stop.
