Car stalling when pressing foot on throttle?

[rfultz2]

I just replaced the ecu in my car, and now I have a problem where the car stalls sometimes when I hit the gas the rpms will drop significantly sometimes cutting off and then it'll spike if it doesn't cut off. Kind of like a delayed reaction, but this only happens when car is in neutral going into first or revving in neutral with car parked.

What year? The ECU you put in might have bad/leaking caps.

1992 theres no CEL, and I had a shop put in the ecu and order the ecu

Mine threw no CEL's but was doing something like yours. It was leaking caps. If I was you I'd pull the ECU and check it first. The 1st gen ECU's are notorious for leaking caps.

Do you know where they got the ECU? Also what was the car doing before this? Would it run at all? The more history about the car the better we can help.

The car was running the day of purchase the guy was driving it to me and it broke down, first we could get it to turn on but it would stall out unless you held foot on gas so we cleaned the IAC, then it wouldn't start took it to a shop they said it was the ecu, they put in ecu and i'm at where I am now how do I check for leaking caps? Also I don't hear chattering from the ecu, I'm going to give it a smell test when I get home to see if it smells like its leaking.

I'm wondering if the IAC is bad.

It idles fine though just when i put my foot on the accelerator it'll die if the rpms are less than 1k i noticed just now when rpms are at 1k it dips to 200 for a second and then it goes but if its less than 1k itll hit 0 and stall

My first suspects would be IAC, MAS, or SAS.

[rfultz2]

Mas? Sas? Talking bout maf?

[stealthee]

MAS is Mass Airflow Sensor

SAS is speed adjustment screw (or something like that) It should NEVER be adjusted, but if it is it can be reset.

At the bottom of the page at this link tells you how to adjust the SAS. Also how to adjust the BISS is on that page
