Default Idles fine but stalls when coming to a stop, Having to pop start all the time

OK, This is hopefully the last tech question I'll have to ask for a while since I've replaced just about everything under the hood lately. Hehe J/P

I just replaced my Igniter, Dizzy rotor and cap, spark plugs, created extra grounds, and did an oil change since last Friday when my car died.
Now, When I'm coming up to a stop , Sometimes the car will keep running but more then likely it'll stall.

While coasting to a stop, I can pop start it and then it will run fine again.
This has happened more then 25 times since the car returned back on the road Monday evening.....It's only tuesday afternoon now

What could possibly be the problem now?
Any suggestions befor I drive this damn thing over a cliff or into the Hillsborough river?

It's so Embarrassing having to pop the clutch at every stop light

Try swapping your computer. Thats one of the first things I would check with those symptoms. And check your grounds again.

that used to happen to me when i first installed the aem ems in my car. i had to mess with a few idle settings inside the program and it hasnt happened since. im sure hondata is a bit different tho but im sure theres many adjustments for idle control

Yes, Exactially the same.

Keith, Hook a brother up then. Heh

If I replaced all these goodies, Then the next day it starts stalling...Don't you think it would be something I installed or did wrong to make this problem occur?

Is there a way I can clean (safely!) the sensors, some kind of induction or carb cleaner?

check your fuel pump. my old ass supra used to do the same thing for like 2 months. then the fuel pump finally went. IAC needs to be checked also.
