sorry for cutting in on your thread but how would you go about testing and cleaning the BAC carb cleaner would be good to clean it with right? im having almost the same problem but i just get a jumping idle from almost stalling then it shoots up to 1,800 RPM

Temporary solution: turn off A/C before every time you idle. Obviously not good long-term.

I need to do the same to mine. Can we reuse the gasket?
Also the previous owner screwed up the connector on the harness, so can someone tell me what color wire goes where?

you also might check the ac compressor to make sure it turns freely.

i had the same problem i thaught it was the alternator or something, went almost all of last summer using the e-brake at stoplights, holding the clutch and revving up to stop it from stalling.. everyone thaught i wanted to race lol. It just sort of went away after winter, havent a problem this summer (knock on wood).

if you cleaned your bac and just don't ac at idle... wire in a relay to break the ac switch when the clutch is in.
