my tll stalls every time I come to a stop.
I have a 88 tll with 20,000 miles on the engine. Every time I put the clutch in to come to a stop the rpm's drop very rapid and the car stalls. Once the car is stopped and I start it, it will idle around 850 but it is a rough idle, it bounces back and forth between 750 and 1000 rpms. Any one have any ideas what is wrong with my car?
Thanks
Thanks

Is it hard to start after it dies? If the idle is bouncing it most likly the TPS. I have the same problem. Mine dies and it floods and it takes a few cranks to get it running again. Ive narrowed it down to a leaking injector. mine also idles high on and off.

I've been working on the same problem. I first changed
my O2 sensor, which was the original. They should be
changed every 60,000 miles. My Idle would jump up and
down & car stall when ever I was breaking, Expecially in
hot humid weather. A new O2 sensor helped but didn't
cure the stalling. I cherked my TPS and found it was bad.
I replaced the TPS and noticed a big difference in acceleration and car only stalls now when cold.
I tried adjusting the idle up but that caused the car to
run rich and foul plugs. The idle will not adjust up over
700 rpm and still dips to about 500 rpm when breaking
or applying other loads like lights, but it comes back very
quickly. I'm going to check my input devices one by one
this week-end, hopefully find something. I'm beging to
think my ECU might be bad, my Engine light comes on
from time to time.
If you have to buy a new TPS, check out my "thread" with
subject " how much my TPS cost".

87rx7ghey, I really wish u would not make STUPID *** suggestion like that one, his car should run fine with out going and buying a SAFC. it could be a vacuum leak, chedck to see if the intercooler hoses are tight. a rx7 should run PERFECT on stock equpment, so no need to buy aftermarket ****.

My suggestion would be to check the TPS and clean/test the BAC valve.

I have the same problem on my 88 vert, seems to have gotten better, but it is in the shop right now for plugs, wires and checking of the 02 sensor (and a ps rack rebuild, but I digress)
Seems to be worse the hotter it is out (S FL) and I think it happens with or without A/C on...
Other than that, car idles nicely, starts up great and idles high when cold, and has never flooded on me.
