Ok here's the deal.

When I drove the car this morning it acted really funky. When I let of the gas and came to a stop, that idle would fall, and then the car would die... It did this continueoulsy.

Would would cause this problem. Help...

And the year of your car is...? Camaro? Firebird? Type of trans? Have you checked for codes?

If it's '85-'89, I'm guessing MAF... or, the IAC passageway could be carbon'd up.

My guess would be that the oxygen sensor on your y pipe is broken or disconected.

Sorry bout that.

88 Firebird, 2.8. Basically bone stock. 50k miles

 

Check for codes...

1. Car off, key off
2. Find the ALDL connector underneath a rectangular "cap" below your steering column.
3. Put a paperclip in the rightmost two terminals in the TOP ROW of the connector.
4. Turn the key to "on" (dash lights come on)- DON'T start the engine.
5. You'll hear the fan come on. The Serv Eng Soon light will start to blink code 12 at you... it will "blink", pause, "blink blink"- that's 12. It repeats each code 3 times, them moves on. If, after 3 repeats of 12, you get 12 again, there are no codes.
6. Turn the car off before removing the paperclip.
