92 camaro RS...305/TBI/Auto

Changed out the distributor this weekend because the other one was completely rusted out. The car starts beautifully and runs like a top but as soon as I stop at a light, my car wants to conk out and stall. If I shift to Park or Neautral while I''m stopped, it will not die. Vacuum line? Distributor?

Thanks for your help.

Brian

One more thing to add....there are no codes showing up. Status 12 means all clear.

^^ what he asked.
If it did not happen before then you need to go over what you had done. Or maybe you got a bad distributer. Did you get a rebuilt like a cardone or a POS accel????

It did not happen before the new distributor but I did quite a bit before changing it out. I changed intake gaskets/TBI gaskets as well.

If it was the distributor, I would think the engine would run rough and have issues starting. It seems more vacuum line oriented...possibly EGR. I''d really like a picture of someone 92 RS to see where the vacuum lines are connected.

What do you think?

Since you mentioned that you messed with the throttle body, did you connect the IAC valve back in? And if you messed with the IAC, like trying to move the pintle by hand, you could have damaged the little drive gear inside the valve.
