Default When stopping car turns off

I have a 94 Civic with a B16 Turbo swap. When I am coming to a stop (i.e. at a stop light), my revs drop below idle and instead of stabling out, my car turns off. It was doing it on occasions before, but now it is happening all the time. What is it? How can I fix it? PLEASE HELP!

There could be alot of things that cause a bad idle.
See if you can investigate more and narrow it down a bit.
Then maybe you'll get some real responses.

It's not a bad idle... when I start the car it's fine.. it's only when I'm coming to a stop, like at a stop light, that the car shuts off when I stop. I've already checked the IAC valve cuz even though I don't think it would cause the car to stall out, I still thought maybe.

If I'm decelerating while in gear (w/ clutch to the floor) or decelerating in neutral, the car stalls out.

Are you sure it's not the IACV? These are classic signs of it being bad...

How do you know it's working properly?
