Icon3 Stalling Out

I drive a 92 honda prelude with a h22A4 swap with an aem intake, skunk2 cams msd ignition, aftermarket coils, heddman headers, and a full tanabe exhaust. Im having some problems with it stalling out when i come to a stop or it comes dangerously close to it. I've been thinking its a fuel line or part of the fuel system but i've also been told its my spark plugs. i have an aftermarket coil which is producing a more aggresive spark and shouldn't be failing. Please help!

Just a suggestion that might sound stupid.... want to try doing a leakdown test?

Other suggestions:

Check fuel pressure
Check for vacuum leaks.
Try cleaning throttle body.
Try cleaning IACV.

simple think to do and easily over looked change out your fuel filter


do you mean your car when it comes to a stop it idles so low it choaks itself out?

if so there is a screw on your throttle body you can adjust so your car will idle a little higher so when your at running temp it won't idle that low hope that info help ya

No cels? Id check fuel pressure with a guage or an FPR with a guage (might be more cost effective) if you think its fuel related.

Could be in your tune too. How long has it had this issue? have you done anything recently to the car?

Hows the car run otherwise? Accelerates normally? Normal power?

Nah. It's been doing this for a while and no like i know it sounds werid but it lags when it accelerates sometimes. like i can run a mid 14 with no spray when it ran well and now i dont think it would run past 16's. It really is sad. Im Thinking about getting the local import shop down here to run a full diagnostic on it. and the syncro is bad. so its time for a new clutch.
