onviously it never happens when im on the gas. but, when im not accelerating, only sometimes my engine completely shuts off. but when it doesnt shut off it just idles reallly low. almost to the point of dying but sometimes it recovers. any ideas? most likely a boost leak? :ugh:

it could be many of things.
i would start with the easiest like valcume lines.
then check for boost leaks.
then maf
then tps (it should be at .46 with a multimeter)
i can keep going but best idea is use the search button.

or you can adjust the idle on top of the intake manifold. but i would still check on other ish if i was you.
