I think this is somehow vacuum related.

When I start the car, cold start, the RPMs will rise to around 1500...stay there for a few seconds then the car dies. If the engine is warm, theres no problems on start up.
When Im driving, if I come to a quick stop where I press the brake rapidly and the clutch, the car stalls.
If I press the clutch in from say 3000 RPMs and let it drop, no stall...or if I break easy it doesnt stall. Only when I break a little harder the car will stall. Any ideas?

 

Never heard of symtoms like that before.......check the fast idle valve.

 

And to add, not sure if my vacuum is good or not.

At idle its at around -280mmHg to -300mmHg and at 3000 RPMs its at -550mmHg when holding it steady (not reving)

Does that sound right?
