engine stalls with clutch in when i come to a stop in 1st or reverse.

[danmaki]

i have ruled out the clutch itself the car does what i want it to when i'm moving and the car starts like a gem unless i come to a stop and the engine drops to idle in reverse or 1st. the engine dies with the clutch depressed and the shifter is locked in gear AND the engine will not start unless i release the clutch and depress it again. this does not happen every time but seems to be happening more frequently...i am very adept at working on cars but this one has me dumbfounded....any help?

Dan,
Interesting, I also have a 92 3EE Tercel, but with automatic trans. It is behaving similar to your description. In my case, the car ran fine when cold, then started to stumble and stall once it got hot. It would restart fine, but take moderate throttle to keep running.

I know I have a possible vacuum leak (intake man sender?), but haven't confirmed whether that is the culprit. I'll re-post once I determine fix.
