Motor turns off when comming to a stop!
Just started today everytime my revs started to drop and battery voltage when comming to a stop the motor will shut off but i can crank it right back up. Motor idles fine no problems runs fine just when comming to a stop the motor shuts off .. any suggestions?
anybody have an idea?
i have a vafc so i can watch the volts and when i push in the clutch and let the rpm's fall the motor will turn off but sometimes it will just fall to around 12.0-12.5 then slow climb .1 at a time back to 14.1 so i dunno

Think it's possible your battery is kinda iffy and not taking a charge well - so when the RPM drop when you clutch it may be going under enough power for the spark to cut stalling out the engine.
I'd try a diff battery and see if the problem persists - or better yet get both the alternator and the battery tested.

Damn i went through that not too long ago. one of my cells in the battery went dead. Changed the battery along with the cables, my car never stopped again, BUT my rpms are low, due to the fact my timing is a bit off.
