Car specs : s13, s14 sr20, 255 walboro, fmic, 3" catback.
the car wont idle/stay on. It happened while I was letting it warm up, about to go home from work. I turned it on, let it idle, it dropped down to 800 rpms after reaching operating temp. I waited until I was off the phone before I started driving. The car started idling at 500, to 700, to 500, then got lower and lower, and died. I walked to the gas station and put a couple gallons of 93 in it, assuming i ran out of gas because my gas gauge is broken, so I have no way of telling. I tried to fire her up and she did the same thing as before, which is idle at 100 - 200 for a couple seconds and die. I pulled the relay on the fuel pump and it did the same thing. My intercooler piping all seems fine. I looked over it all, but I know the car wouldn't do this if it were just a small hole or something. Recomendations?
edit: i tried starting it at WOT, made no difference
edit again: the pump also primes when i turn it on, and i'll say it again. i have on leaks in my intercooler piping and my vac lines are fine
