When the engine is street warm does it stall when I engage the clutch, it happens 5 out of 10 times. What's up? To cold O2 sensors due to high flow 3" sidepipes, Dirty TBs or? Help!

Might be as simple as needing a new battery! The idle sensor uses 12 volt power, and even a slightly sluggish battery can cause stall out problems (had it happen on my '96).

Agree with Joe....same thing happened with my 98GTS. New battery solved problem. Mine would be ok with the revs slightly up, but when I'd slow to an idle, it would stall frequently. pete the ex glass guy
