Idles smooth but dies when revved


Recommended Posts

as the title says it idles smooth but just dies when i give it gas

 

i figured it was a vacuum leak but i havent touch anything in

the car engine wise. and just yesterday it would rev fine no

problems then it all went to s***

 

and on an added note i havent driven the car i just

start up my car let it run a lil bit then shut it off

because im waiting on the title to the car.

but as i was saying it revved fine yesterday

then i finished my clutch master cyclinder

rebuild and install in the car it was fine. then

i went to start it up today to put air in the tires.

so i gave it some gas and anything about 1500rpm

it would just die. first i thought i was mass air flow sensor

because this happen on a previous car i had

so i brought some cleaner and it did nothing....well maybe

but not what i was looking for.

 

anyways i hope that was enough info to help me out

and there is gas in the car i went and did that to

timing sounds off, but in my experience, if it seems like ignition, its fuel and if it seems like fuel its ignition. Too much fuel or too little can also cause similar symtoms. Check your timing, and also pull the spark plugs to check them, if fouled clean them or buy more having 2 sets when tuning is nice... then go from there.
