You say when your at an idle WHILE braking, it wants to die. What about if your just idling with your foot off the brake?

your RPMs should drop slightly while applying the brakes at idle. if your car is idling low, this could stall it. if your idling btw 800 and 1000 and still stalling it has to be electrical. have your bat and alt tested. most automotive stores can do that for free.

so thanks for the replys so battery is good alt is good it does it at an idle or while ive been driving but it only does this when its warm, it seems like the idle might be low but at an idle with no foot on the brake it idles between 8 and 1,000 so it seems fine im lost on this
