try disconnecting the vacuum source to your bov so it doesn't open and see if still stalls.

Don't forget to cap that vac line when you unplug it LOL. Been there.

Had the same issue. It ended up being my damn MAF! It would run TITS then just die or while coming to a stop it would shut the motor off.

Buy the Recirculation kit for the BOV. Temp solution- you can try upping your base idle rpm, it can help for the stalling issue. However you'll probably notice when you shift very fast it might bog so the best solution is to recirc the bov.

not recirculating the bov will make the motor unstable or sometimes stall out on shifts

I recently started having a stalling problem although my car seems to have a hard time starting I have to pump the gas a bit or sometimes crank for a while and then it started stalling some advice would be greatly appreciated

rb25silla does it do that after the engine has warmed up and driven for a few then it dies and when you crank it take a lil bit to start again. if so it's the maf

It doesn't stall all the time but it will bog down a bit when coming to a stop but comes back up. And yea it always takes long to start about maybe 5-6 cranks sometimes not even without a couple pumps of gas pedal. My blow off valve is also not recirculated so I'm thinking that may be the problem it messing with MAF. What do you think?

between the maf and fuel pump. Check both see what's going on. Fuel pressure and also check maf voltage.
