well, as the title states, im still in process of learning to shift well.only part i have problem in, as well as any other beginner, is the first gear.

i stall very rarely, but when i do, i keep stalling because the car runs very rich.today, i was at my mom's friend's house, and i was on my way back and stalled once near her driveway... on my way out, i could literally feel the car bucking after i stalled. the car was hesistating in first gear (around 1-2.3k rpms)then i shifted, blah blah blah, it would do this every 1.7k~2.3k..

so, im at the light about half way to my house, and green light comes on, so i shift into 1st, get ready to go.. then suddenly i stall again.i got a little hotheaded and kept trying, but it just did the same thing over and over, kept stalling. it also ran pig rich. car was hesistating in idle as well!

anyone had the same problem? my AIV unit is removed. maybe its time for me to get new plugs/wires?

any info would be appreciated

ps. i thought i had this problem fixed, but it comes back to haunt me everytime i stall, so poo

well, yeah, i've read over that a few times already.

i found out the car is running pig rich when stalled. i was talking to a friend and he said it might be the ECTS.not an expensive fix.. so ill go get a new ects, then see from there on
