2000 Hyundai Accent standard transmision stalls when clutch is pushed in
I will start it up and it idles 750-900 RPM. When I start to drive it, if I were to push the accelerator all the way to the floor, it bogs down in 1st gear and 2nd gear. If I floor it in 3rd, 4th, or 5th, it bogs down and sputters. When I approach a stop sign and put my foot on the clutch, the RPM's go straight to "0". After driving for a while, it will not idle. I have adjusted the idle position screw and was able to get it to keep idling with 1.5K RPM but, after driving 55mi, It stalls again. My check engine light is always on and begins flashing at 30, 40, 50, 60mi per hour. If traveling at the same speed for a while, the check engine light stops flashing. But, if I change speeds, it begins flashing again. I've had multiple tune-ups, throttle valve sensor replaced with no luck. Milage=165,000, I've tried fuel cleaners, injector cleaners and had no improvement. The car isn't worth that much anymore. I don't want to spend more than it's worth to get it fixed. Any suggestions would be helpful. Read somewhere about an EGR valve? Could that be it? Where is it located? Thanks in advance, -Brooks Webb

Hello William. On standard transmissions you have to press down the clutch to start the car, and on automatic transmissions you have to press down on the brake pedal in order to start the car. Look for your immobilizer under the dash at clutch or brake pedals depending on trans. Hope this was helpful, GOOD LUCK.
During rough idling, when the clutch is released due to high rpm of the engine, the engine may stalls. Another possible reason due to quick release of clutch pedals.
First tune the idling of the engine. Look for the cleaness of the air filter, Fuel lines are clear for free flow. Check the spark plugs for free from carbons and gaps are maintained correctly.
When slowing down the car change to appropriate gears and netural the gears when about to stop.
sounds stupid but the last time something like this happened it was a loose ht lead....but im sure you checked that already.
idle should be 850/900
liquid is only condensate in rear box
have you looked for an air leak in the pipe from the inlet to the brake servo?
IF THE STARTER WON'T CRANK U MAY HAVE A BAD CLUTHC SWITCH.IT IS ON THE CLUTCH PEDAL AND ONLY ALLOWS POWER TO THE STARTER W/CLUTCH PEDAL IS FULLY DEPRESED
