problems
So i get in my car to come home from work tonight and it doesn't want to turn over.then i get it to start and it won't idle runs fine just idles to low and stalls.It was working fine this morning.after driving it most of the way home it would idle at red lights but very low and shudder slightly as if it was about to stall but if i touch the gas to bring it up a little it was fine.I should also say that while driving it everything seemed fine drove smooth temps and everything were where they were supposed to be.
So my question is annyone have any idea why it would start acting this way?

wouldn't a vaccum leak cause a CEL?
are there spots where a leak is more likely to occur?

ok so as suspected it was one of the hose clamps decided to let go replaced and now we are back to running.
haven't got a chance to read the CEL yet. it started back up about 100miles after doing the anti-fouler trick.
and zero its a GReddy rs blowoff valve

little update on the problem it only seems to happen when the car has sat for a while once it gets up to operating temp it goes away car runs great can shut it off and restart it no problems.I do have colder plugs in the car could that be the cause i have checked the piping and found one loose clamp but tightened it and no difference.
I will have some time to get the CEL checked thurs
