More problems with my fc. I found out why the brakes were losing pressure alnd clutch sticking to floor; clutch line had a tiny crack. I replaced that, but now there is another issue. It won't stay idling. If I push the clutch in while driving the revs will fall and the motor will die. The same thing happens at a stand still. Any ideas? I don't know where to start looking

work on the motor recently?...usually vacuum leaks are the problem with rough/no idleing..

No haven't touched the motor. Drove it yesterday, parked it, and my friend drove it today. Got 1/2 mile from the house when it stalled on him. I might try cleaning the plugs. I know they are pretty dirty.

try turning up the idle speed too, its probably vacuum leaks

I'm an idiot. I unpluged the egr return vacuum line in order to get access to the clutch line and forgot to reconnect it. It just popped into my head. I put the hose back and problem is fixed https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png
