Default my car keeps dying on me

After installing my JG Victor X IM and Hondata IM gasket, occasionally when I come to a stop, my car just dies. It happens when the revs drop when I clutch in or put it in neutral. The revs just fall and my car just dies. I tried adjusting my vafc by richening and also leaning out the mixture, but it didn't help.

Default Re: my car keeps dying on me (Airtracks)

Mine did the same thing when I installed my HP Racing manifold. On top of the throttle body there is an adjustment screw that will most likely fix your problem. After you have been driving the car or after it is warmed up, adjust the idle to a spot that will keep it from dying. You will hear the engine speed up or slow down while you are turning the screw.
