When Driving The Car Stalled After Taking Out Of Gear

[lows_13]

I was driving home tonight and three time this happened, i was coming to either a red light or had to slow down and after pushing in the clutch and taking it out of gear the revs just dropped all the way down and stalled.....Turned the key, restarted the car and continued on.

Has anyone has this sort of problem before?

I'm thinking maybe the airflow sensor is dirty or something?

i get it sometimes.

used to get it really bad but changed my airflow meter and it was ok, but still a bit iffy sometimes.

its quite upsetting.

does it idle nicely ?

will it stall if u say rev to 4000 in 2nd then put the clutch in leave it in and come to a complete stop ?

some people reckon its a idle control problem, and some reckon its to do with the fuel pump slowing down for idle.

theres a guy on here who changed the ground for his fuel pump so it goes all out all the time and says that fixed it.

also theres the whole bov saga that causes it too.

its a very hard problem to get a straight answer for, believe me ive tried.

search?

read the sticky threads in this section?

Its either afm or BOV related... comes up weekly

cheers

Its got a BOV, could be either of the two.

Just have to narrow it done.

Whats the deal with the BOV causing the prob?

[ODessA]

the bov is more to do with if its plumb back or not.

some ppl have the problem either way, but for me if i dont plumb back my greddy type s the sucker stalls, and if i do its ok, but still kinda iffy like a said earlier.

pretty much if its plumb back should be ok, try using the stock one if u still have it see how u go.

[lows_13]

Mine isn't plumback, i'll try other options to start with and come back

to the BOV issue.

[ODessA]

if ur running a stock computer with afm, and ur bov isnt plumback, i would be looking squarely at it

[DFAULT]

i got the exact some problem

i changed the AFM, worked almost perfectly for about 2 months

then problem came back again

please tell me when you've fixed the problem

cheers

[lows_13]

Its standard ECU, is it a problem with all non-plumback BOV's?

Also make sure you clean the AFM otherwise it will just go back the its old ways
