CAR KEEPS STALLING.....HELP
i have a 2000 civic si ..gsr swap and turbo, the car has been running great with no issues. I was driving around tonight and my check engine light came on and at idle the needle would jump from 500rpms to around 1100 and just sputter and die at idle and when in neutral. can any one help me? motor has around 10K miles on the rebuild again everythingwas working great earlier.

first things first is read the MIL that caused the check engine light. you can check the code(s) with a paper clip to jump the two terminals in the service connector (behind passenger side kick panel) - http://www.phearable.net/tech/mil/readcodes.html
when it starts to sputter, can you hold the throttle and it'll clear up? like hold it at 2k or something?

yes i can hold the rpms up at like 1k or 2k and its fine...just when it goes back to the idle it drops to around 500rpms, kicks back up to around 1K and just turns off .. ill look into that site thanks man
