Default Wont run with a pcv valve

Allright i thought my pcv was clogged and I had to order a new one. So for the time being i just drilled mine out it made it idle weird and it stumbled sometimes but it didnt die when i put the clutch in. Today i went and picked up my new pcv and put it on. Now every time i drive and come to a stop and push the clutch in it dies. I can start it back up and it will idle fine and drive fine but it does the same thing every stop... Im thinking Iac but not sure help please.!!!! Iv double and triple checked all vacume lines Im pretty sure its a sensor....

Sounds like a Idle Air Control valve is not working properly. The PCV valve should not effect the idle speed.

sure the pcv valve can affect idle speed depending on the air flow...

This is common on alot of cars. I would spray the throttle body out real good with TB cleaner. The passages can get clogged very easily. The same thing was happening on my Truck and that was the problem

Disconnect the battery for a few minutes.

Yep that'll do it, but OP, do you have the stock stereo? If so, make sure you know the security code or you'll be without a stereo until you get it. Stupid anti-theft features will lock it up until you get the right code.
