These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

This has happened twice in the last few weeks. Engine is running fine and I stall it due to poor clutch work. Starts right back up but immediately dies as soon as it returns to idle. This happens several times. I restart, with foot on gas, and run engine at 2500 rpm or so for 4-5 minutes. Then it runs fine. Any ideas? Thanks, Chris.

POST 2Original post

Several idea's.. Clean throttle body very well, then perform TB re-calibration Check fuel trims(looking for vacuum leaks ect) Check for lazy 02 sensors
