    Clutch induced idle problems

    So basically I just finished my five speed swap and every thing runs fine and shifts smooth, but when approaching a stop if I simply hold in the clutch till I come to a stop the idle seems to slowly search between 400-800rpms not like its gonna die but back and forth. If I take it out of gear when coming to a stop it dose not do it and once I'm completely stopped it idles nice and smooth.

    It's not everytime either, mostly if I just started the car but sometimes after it's already warm. Also it runs fine when I get off the highway or drive for a while without stopping.

    I'd guess on there being an intake leak and the ICV being dirty and sticky. The clutch itself has nothing to do with this problem.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      yeah I thought it was weird but that really is the only time it does it. The car sat for about a month and a half so I wasn't all that surprised it was rough at first. I'll clean out the ICV and check for vacuum leaks, then through some fresh gas in it. just wanted to see if anyone knew of some connection or anything. thanks for the input
