Thanks

82,352 Miles, Engine is very strong, runs great. IAC?

I searched forum, couldn't find any definitive answer, I haven't check codes yet, buddy has scanner right now.

so you can start it up and rev it up normally and runs fine, but once you push the clutch in it dies?

ive heard of this before, its usually your thrust washers and called crank walk. you push the clutch in, pushes the crankshaft forward and temporarily seizes the engine until you let the clutch out.

do you have an aftermarket clutch on this? ive only heard of 7m's doing this with like a spec stage 3+
