took it out, and it seems to do it alot less.. but..it still does it.. when i'm coming to a stop, and i put it out of gear, alittle blip of the throttle, helps it to stay steady .. here's the updated map. Take a look - lemme know how the settings look.

One trick I have used is to manually keep the car at idle by using timing. For example: if you have an issue with the car cutting off when coming to a stop, add some timing to the upper left corner. You can also \"box\" in the desired idle with timing also. I used this once to fix a car that would cut off when coming to a stop.

On my initial tunes, the 1k and lower rpm, and col 4 or 5 down to col one; I treat all fuel/ignition values as the same cell... I.e. I have them at all the same timing, and all the same fuel, until the rest of my tables are tuned enough to be able to interpolate the values down that low; It proved consistantly easier to get started by forcing the engine to idle :)
