so now that i have my car going ive ran into a few problems. the only one i keep having trouble with is the engine likes to die at random times. it does it when i push in the clutch and take it out of gear and brake around a curve or something about once a day. if you turn the key it will start right back up though. sitting at an idle it does have some quirks, it doesnt keep a perfect idle, it speeds up and slows down a little, but its nothing bad. any ideas what could be going on? im almost wondering if its the battery, i bought a real cheap battery that has crap for amps, do you think it could be causing this? or whats the deal with the isc on these?

its a non turbo, so no blow off valve. i replaced the spark plugs this morning, and drove it to work and back with no problems. i dont know if that fixed it, or if i was just lucky and it didnt happen today. the idle is smooth most of the time, but i've had it jump around on me a few times, especially with the a/c on. how do you set the idle with the screw on the TB? aren't you supposed to ground a wire first?
