FUCKING CAR KEEPS STALLING
 
ok, sometimes, but not everytime...the godamn car just shuts the ---- off. I know the battery is pretty shot, but that shouldnt effect anything really. Sometimes its when i come to a stop, others its when i just rev it and let it come down. I know it isnt the alternator entirely since if i unhook the battery when its running, it stays on. What im thinking is that my unorthodox crank pulley is maybe spinning the alt. too slow and its not making enough juice when the rpm's are low. what do you guys think?...ill change the pulley after i take a nap, im a lazy fucker

the weird thing is that it used to do this sometimes a long time ago(b4 the pulley/motor buildup)...can an alternator work, but just not work as well as it should (do they have to entirely take a ----, or can they just go bad?)

ok swapped the old pulley back in (belt was a little loose too), and now the battery is charging, but the fucker still stalls sometimes, more often if i just rev it than when im driving...any ideas?

could be your IAC, if it doesn't catch, your car would stall.

its not the battery (that would have no effect on it once its running really), and the ignition/stereo is all stock
