When I shift to neutral, when my rpms are around 2500-3000, from any gear-mostly 2nd and 4th-my car cuts off. I just replaced the IAC hoping that was the problem-NOPE!!! Also, this poblem isn't throwing any codes .

Any ideas??

Thanks!!!!

Do you have gears?...If you have an electronic speedo recalibrator the VSS signal could be to blame...

Never thought about that... Yes, I do have gears and a Speedcal (elec. recalibration box).

Soooooo. the Speedcal's to blame right? maybe?

It could be a lot of things, but the Speedcal is a good place to start....Check all the connections... [patriot]

It's kinda stupid-I must have been in denial-but I noticed this problem after I installed my Accufab plenum/throttle body. So I just probably need a tune, but I don't want to get a tune; it seems like a waste of $ on a n/a car.

If my connections look good, I'll get a tune.

Thanks for the help boss [patriot] .

The problem you're discribing has nothing to do with needing a "tune"...You would be wasting your money...

Any mods that you've done put back to stock and see if that makes a difference...I'm not telling you to leave it that way and loose the hp you gained, but It's just a way to find out what's wrong with your car...

It's called processes of elimination... [Wink] [patriot]
