Default car turns off in neutral?

i have a 93 mr2 turbo. for some reason everytime i put the car in neutral after shifting and im rolling to a red light the car just decides to turn off. i have no vacuum leaks and i rev it in neutral at a dead stop and it idles fine...

im thinking its the bov cuz its the only thing i fed around w/ before it started messing up, but what else could it be cuz the bov seems fine unless if its not closing now after opening.

YOU still running the Turbo XS ?

Maybe it is too loose and opens up under vaccum and lets enough air out to die . Try tightening it down some

Do you still have the stock BOV? You can borrow one of mine if you want to give that a shot. I have heard of mr2s stalling due to an open bov, but it never happened on mine. I had a turboXS on my old 93t and didn't have a problem with it, but all mr2s are different.

dude , do you have an atmospheric BOV , cause if you do , then u need to reroute the mass air flow sensor , cause on my 7mgte , i had a similar problem , cause the computer isnt reading the airflow correctly thinkings its being recirculated instead of it being released from the engine...
