Car dies when idling?

Question

My fuel injected, 1988 Camaro dies at stoplights, or when I'm backing out of my driveway to go somewhere. What is it?

I just had my fuel injectors cleaned two weeks ago.

Answer 2

Before you try replacing parts try cleaning the throttle body its normaly the reason for stalling, clean it with a good carb cleaning spray and a toothbrush and some rags and try to get it as clean as you can and afterwards give it a drop of oil.
The engine will have truoble starting and will casue black smoke becouse its burning up the cleaner.
also clean the trunk and the vacuum pipe coeming from the throttle body and if you can the idle control valve/ moter and Any other sensors in the throttle body coming from it if there is one and clean the air box if you like but remember to change the filter
also check the connections to the MAF/MAP

Apart from that it could be a :

Blocked air filter
faulty sensors
faulty idle control valve
Blocked fuel filter
Electrical fault

Answer 3

Without being there to see for myself, I could only guess that
it is the idle air control. It may need cleaned or replace.
Then again the whole fuel injection may need cleaned.
Or it may have a vacuum leak. These are the cheapest things
to do. If they don`t work, it will get more expensive.

Answer 4

sounds to me like a map sensor or a idle air control motor. unplug the IAC motor if the problem goes away, then that is the problem. Also, check for a vacuum leak, may be causing a lean condition at idle, but first check the IAC...

Answer 5

Check for a bad PCV first. If plugged it will cause this problem. If OK check your EGR valve to see if it is not responding to the vacuum signal. Lastly check fuel filters.

Answer 6

air flow sensor ? can't tell from here . have it code scanned .

Answer 7

fule filter is clogged
