Question car runing like ****

took the car to gm to do the stage 2 reflash for idle flucuation but they stage all the engine codes and software was up to date.so everytime i decelerate and push in the clutch the car alomost stalls,the rpms drop to about 500 then flucuates between 750 and 1000. So guys what else could be the problem?. I was thinking maybe the fuel filter??.

I had the exact same problem until I cleaned out my throttle body. Once I did that, it was like a totally different car. Before you waste your time and money on anything else, clean out your throttle body.

the GM stage 2 tune is **** man.... someone was drinking when they made it. I swear to god it is one hell of a **** tune. I could go on and on about it, if you have hptuners i could give you a baseline on what to use.

wow, wtf CAI do u have?

BTW

if u want to check out my conservative GM stage 2 tune that GM should use instead of the drunk **** that built it use this as a baseline....

GM Stage2 Dialed

keep in mind timing wasnt touched for safety reasons

Altitude was for 1000 feet above sea level

Piston Protection and COT left enabled so it will run rich under WOT but it will remove alot of the other **** GM thinks is "proper"

go ahead and check it out
