Idle and dies

Whats up hey I just got a tune job on my car and i replaced my IAC cuz it was idling rough. Maybe i need to tighten or loosen my IAC that could be the problem. It idles below 500 RPM's and dies. Could it be the EGR Valve or a bad solonoid. Trickster said it might be my MAP sensor.

Get out your vacuum gauge and meter and check the MAP if you think that's the problem:



I'd suggest checking the idle RPM and setting the minimum air position of the throttle. It might be a good idea to clean the throttle body and IAC air passages before you start adjusting.
