OK.....this is a continuation of getting this auto to work, for those of you that have followed my questions, this car sat for almost two years without being started, I replaced the battery and starter and now it is running. Runs very smooth, shift great....little tight on the suspension but hopefully that will loosen.
My newest problem is that anytime I come to a stop sign it dies, then I either have to pop the clutch or restart it. It does this each time you come to a stop. Runs fine when driving down the road.

Any suggestions please
