it seems like it does it in 3rd through 6th mostly.



I think basically when I shift between gears if I dont get into another gear before the tach drops it dies.

what could be the cause of this, it never wanted to die as an automatic, SC400.

PseudoK

so no one has an answer for me? any idea at all, I am thinking about it regularly and I cant figure it out

Could be a number of things. Idle Control Valve not keeping up would be one. I would try cleaning it to see if it helps it out or not.

but it never died as an automatic, maybe something to do with the drastic change in RPMs that the automatic never had?

When I used to have a mk3 supra it did the same thing for me after i swapped to a manual. It stopped when I put a manual ecu in it.

Maybe there is some adjustment at the throttle body that can be made to help with that

PseudoK

has no one ever had this issue when swapping to a manual in a 1UZ?

by throttle body you mean turn the idle screw up or something? when it doesnt die sometimes it idles at like 400

SO I noticed a code flash as its trying to die if I keep it alive. the code is 31 and its gone when the car is turned back on.

try adjusting the TPS....if you move the TPS around and it doesnt change your idle....then you may want a new one

PseudoK

I cant find the adjustment for that

but if I just unplug the MAF and it doesnt happen that will diagnose it right?

Pilot27

usually if the maf is malfunctioning and you unplug it and it runs better, the maf is the culprit

PseudoK

unplugged maf and the car still dies.

How about the TPS adjustment?

have you tried cleaning the idle air control valve? Could be a vacuum leak, make sure and check all the hoses.

I've got your old car.
I took off the egr and cleaned behind it,aswell as raising the idle and the shifting issues gone.
