VSS options

It has been a long time since I have posted a thread on Thirdgen, but am a daily viewer. I have been tuning for a few years now and have learned a lot from this forum, and have a pretty decent tune going for my car.

I have looked long and hard for a solution to my idle problem on my t56 swapped IROC, and I was hoping there was a solution. I am working with the stock 165 ecm, in the 6e mask. The problem I am having is the car is very temperamental when shifting out of gear. It idles fine when at a stop, but when driving around it will almost always die when I take it out of gear are put the clutch in. I can keep it going by giving it a little gas, and then it will finally idle, but it is making driving a pain.

From my reading it looks like it is a VSS issue (I don't have a speedo, or VSS hooked up). Is there a way to tune this out?

Re: VSS options

Probably easier to use a Dakota Digital SGI-5 box to buffer the T56's VSS and feed it to the ECM.

Re: VSS options

Is there a way to tune this out of the ECM to keep it from dying temporary bandaide? I am planning on upgrading my gauge cluster, going to an electric speed and going to the 730ecm down the road.
