idle issues/Stalls in neutral over 40-50 mph?

hey all,

I've had an issue with my Z for the past month or so, whenever I coast from a speed over 50 mph, the engine will stall out. I will crank the ignition with clutch in and it starts right back up, but something obviously isn't right.

Below 50mph, no stalling. Occasionally there will be problems with idling to high (idle @ 2000RPM) but it eventually corrects itself.

any ideas?

Your cone filter is improperly installed.

Same Problem??

Did anyone figure this engine stalling problem yet? I just picked up yet,,,, another '90 NA w/ 5 spd this time and this one is stalling too, when it is allowed to coast in neutral. It also wants to rev about 1500 rpm around town when pulling up to stop signs.............any ideas on that one???

Thanks, J.

Check the cleanliness of your air filters?
