2007 Mustang GT Stalls when driving

Hey all. My first problem with this car. Its a 07 GT with a 4.6. Has 80k on it now. I been using an intake and a tune for the past 4 years with no problems. When pushing my clutch in to stop, my rpms drop to
about 200-300 then stalls. Sometimes it will jump back up to 800-1000,
but mostly just stalls. Any ideas? Is there something I can adjust to
increase the rpms? Something going bad? I have no idea. Thanks all

You may have a bad IAC ( idle air control) but try eliminating any vacuum leaks and cleaning the throttle body first. Remove the intake snorkel, have someone hold the throttle wide open for you and scrub the back side of the throttle plate and surrounding bore with an old tooth brush and some carb cleaner. Be sure to spray some into the small holes next to the throttle plate. That should help stabilize the idle. If it still has a problem, replace the IAC.

Might be a good idea to remove the IAC and clean the slider with carb cleaner then lube it with WD40.

I got confused at first because it was showing information on an IAC valve in the service information which isn't correct.
