Have you made the car clutch-start override?

Maybe run an oil analysis? Just to be sure, it's not a thrust-bearing issue.

Thanks again!

Step one is to monitor the STFT, to determine if a rich or lean condition is causing it to stall.

Rebuilding the engine will not change anything.

Yes, the car starts without the clutch depressed.

Thanks again!

I'm sorry what is the STFT?

The short term fuel trim (STFT) refers to immediate changes in fuel occurring several times per second.

Is this something you measure with a specific tool?

Thanks!

Does a expensive scanner tool do this? Like an Autec?
