When starting warm car almost stalls???
This has been an issue I have lived with since I purchased the car and was stock because I have zero codes and it is mainly a nuisance. It never happens on cold start or cold weather. Seems to be when the car is warmed up. The car starts and idles fine. But when the A/C kicks in high initially it bogs the engine down and the idle drops. If I attempt to put into gear and drive the car sometimes stalls. Does anyone else have this issue??

I've had vac leaks appear only when warm. I figured it was due to the difference in expansion of the metal and rubber pieces where the leak was.
Could your problem be caused by an ac compressor starting to seize, slowing down your idle?

I have only noticed a vacuum leak when warm. Probably wrong, but I thought the ecu controlled idle one way prior to the coolant reaching a certain temperature, and differently afterwards, hence why vacuum leaks only show up when warm.

I've been following your musings here for years. so, by now, that maf could well be fried. i recently replaced mine and it cured what i was sure was a vac leak. but $180 is my upper limit dollar threshold for the "throw-a-part" game and this time? i won the prize

Now I need to find a good vacuum leak checking DIY procedure for our cars.

i'd also like to see a comprehensive 'list" of any/all vac leak testing procedure. but is it not as simple as checking every hose and line of the intake system from the ic''s all the way to the plenum and incl the check valves?
