Question 93 Stalls

I am having a problem with my 93 RX that I can't figure out for anything. If my car is warm and I come to a stop and I have the clutch in and the shifter in gear the car will die. I can start it right back up again .. then the car won't do it again. I can be driving at 50mph push in the clutch and the car will die. I start it up and everything is fine again. Any ideas? Could it be my clutch?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
Eric

If it happens when you press in the clutch, try checking the "clutch switch".

Well that's great that you figured out the problem. It's a cheap install/fix too, so it's good news

Technical Service Bulletins

They are not recalls so they are not necessarily fixed by Mazda for free.

Failing Inspection (I'm assuming emissions)?

Yep, you are on your own. Just search the forum for "emissions". There are plenty of threads on those problems.
