Heel to toe downshift causes a stall? Huh?

[s383mmber1]

SO im comming home tonight from UPS and im behind a car, the car turn, and as im entering a corner, i heel-to-toe downshift into second and lose all power.

I coast to the side of the road and think to myself.....

Try to start the car, it starts without any hesitation, and i drive away.

What could have caused this?

Ive been doing it for a while and i think im pretty good, but even IF i did it bad, how would i stall the motor?

It wasnt even a stall, it jsut shut off. Completley.

maybe your carburetor needs some adjustments.....lol. It has happen to me in auto-x. I pressed the brakes to hard and stalled the motor....(my shoe fell off). lol

No carburetor to adjust. But maybe on the right track, could be a vacume leak, combination of brakes, power stearing could have stalled it.

I was joking about the carb :biglaugh:

does the idle speed change when you just push the clutch in?

Brake booster leaking? Just a thought.

BOV vented to atmosphere? My 7M-GTE MKIII does something similar every once in a blue moon and it only does it when it has the Greddy RS vented to atmosphere on it. I think it's something like what AJ'S 88NA said.
