Default 00 EM1 Drives fine, but sometimes won't idle at a stop....

Well pretty much like the subject says, I have a 00 EM1 and although it drives great, sometimes (not every time) when I come to a stop the idle will dip from a regular idle RPM 900(ish) and then go lower. When this is occuring if I don't rev it slightly it will stall out.

I have a 68mm Omni TB and Omni TPS Sensor on it (that I've replaced a few months ago for the second time in about a year). Durring the last few weeks, it threw a code for The TPS sensor. It ran fine even when throwing the code, so all I did was check it to make sure it was within regular tollerances and sure enough it was, disconnected the battery, and I haven't had and check eng. lights since, just this annoying idle/stalling problem. Obviously Im thinking a problem with the TPS, but Im just hoping to get other opinions on this and see hopefully if Im going in the right direction.

Anyone else using an Onmi TPS sensor have problems with them?

My friend had the same problem, he could never figure it out.

I think there might of been a recall on the ignition itself, that caused that problem. try looking into that.

Good luck
