Check my thread dude. I wrote it up in the how to section. ATM is just below this thread.

I just did this yesterday and the car would idle then the engine light comes up and revs to 2-3 k then goes back to idle (engine light goes off) then engine light comes up idles 2-3 k then goes back to idle than stalls. Any idea why?

Hopefully it's just an issue with your iac. It's a little sensor near the rear passanger side of the manifold that controls your idle. It's got 2 torque screws by memory. Check to make sure it's plugged in good and not too old and dirty.

Edit: if you're talking about your vs it's on the passanger side on your throttle body.

It's a VR commodore. Has a pod filter on it and doesn't seem to suck air through the pod filter. So maybe it has a leak in the manifold itself. I will use gasket sealant see how I go

All gd. Fixed it. Didn't have a vacuum hose on the throttle body connected. Hence why the idling was stuffed.

You really should put V6 in the Title.... but it is basically the same anyway.....cheers

Did the gaskets recently due to a broken water fitting at the back of the manifold

Replaced the plastic fittings with brass ones from an old workplace
