so i am driving down and I am reving it up then i see a highway patrol coming up. I am about 4k rpm, and i put it in neutral and hit the brakes to drop speed. the damn car dies and i have to restart the car. is this a vacuum hose issue or what am i dealing with? thanks for any help.

How does the car idle?...It might have something to do with your vehicle speed sensor (VSS), I noticed you have 4.10's do ou have a speedo recalibrator?...

yeah i have 4.10's and a speed calibrator. But i also have an HCC engine with cams so they had to adjust the idle by using a chip. the car runs normal under any other driving. thanks for helping me out, let me know.

**********UPDATE************
OK, this morning the car was stalling constantly just about every time i put the car in neutral. the gas tank issue, i don;t believe it would since it has been fine since the engine install. I also have a lock on my gas cap so i don;t think anyone put sugar in the tank. (hopefully nobody hates me that much) ok, guys what could it be? chip needs to be retuned? (byron did the original) bad gas?
please let me know.
thanks.
