Car cuts off when pushing in the clutch?
Alright well it just started happening recently. Whenever u push in the clutch while driving the RPMS either drop down to about <300rpm or just drops completly off. My boy said to check out the alarm wires cause there could be a short since there is remote start involved. But i have checked the fuel lines and car is still running rich like it should be. Does anyone have an suggestions on which to check out next? Spark plugs have been replaced as well and didnt help out at all.

Re: Car cuts off when pushing in the clutch?
are you boosted? If so and your car isn't factory turboed i'd check all your vacuum lines from the install. I had the same problem, when i would push the clutch in my car would either drop down in revs really quickly or it would seem to stall out/studder and than catch itself. I checked the BOV (greddy type-S..which is notorious for leaking boost) and the screw was so lose it wasn't putting any pressure onto the BOV valve. Once i tightened it down my idle smoothed out and the car didn't fade like it used too.
