    ok guys i noticed my car vibrating like crazy at stop lights...first i thought it was a dp rubbing issue....but no i watched today and everytime im slowing down as im almost stoppped my rpms dip down to about 450 and they keep dipping slightly at the light from 850-650 and the dipping is causing the vibration almost like it keeps coming close to a stall....what would cause this i know i got a vacuum leak because my ltft's are +16.4 any ideas if i brake torque and raise the idle myself the vibrations go away...so i wanna fix it lemme know...

    get a can of carb spray and spray it on the motor on the suspected spots. if the idle changes when you spray it at an area then youve found your vacuum leak.

    you should definately try and consolidate your threads. change the title and ask more/different questions if need be. no reason for you to have 3-4 threads on the first page all created by you.
