possible vacuum leak?
After starting my car, when I release the clutch the rpm's will drop very slightly. On a cold start, the rpm's are higher so this doesn't really matter. But on a warm start since the rpm's only go to the normal idle, it will cause the car to almost stall.
Yesterday I did a warm start and decided to just keep holding the clutch down, and the car stalled out. After the car is started, there's no problems. Is this a vacuum issue or something else? I have a boost/vac gauge and there's 16-18 in/hg at idle so I don't think there's a leak. |
Mine idles at 20/21.

When you release the clutch (in neutral) you start spinning the drivetrain which will add a wee bit of load on the engine and dip the RPMs. All normal/NP
The warm start - almost stall incident should have kicked a code. I would not suspect a vacuum leak based on that... has it happened again? |

I had my usual codes random misfire, bank 1 too lean, and a pending code for o2 response slow. I think these are all related to my fuel pump being weak.

Maybe check the fuel pump relay. I know my car was doing some interesting things that sound kinda like your issue. Replaced it and I was good to go.

Did the code say random misfire on a particular cylinder?
