my car idles fine most of the time. But sometimes when I get to high rpm(4-6 thousand) I presss the clutch down to put it in neutral and as it revs down the car will stall out. Also when I start the car it seems like it wants to die out, but then idle goes to normal. Anyone know what that could be.

Bump your idle to about 900 RPM. That will fix it for the most part provided that you BOV is recuirclated. I had the same problem but after bumping the idle up its fixed. I haven't had a stall yet and the idle is much more stable.

hmm could this be idle problem? i am about to stop for a red and I press down on clutch and brake to slow down..All of a sudden my engine light turns on , oil light turns on and my battery light turns on. My car bascailly while my foot is still on the clutch and it stalled. I drive down another block and i press down on the clutch again, the same lights show up. but this time I just downed it to 2nd and gased it the car juss contiune to run..whats werid is that it felt like the car had stalled again..but not sure how it started going again..only happened 1 day....

do you have a recirculating blow off valve, if not, get one, that is your problem.
