hey guys 1991 camaro rs v6 3.1l. i recently insalled a sub and an amp. now the car stalls when slowing down. i removed the amp and the issue is still there. i replaced the battery with a yellow top. still the same problem. car ran fine before the amp and sub install. i was thinking that my altenator isnt strong enough for the amp and sub. and even tho i disconnected the amp it may have done its damage already to the altenator. however, when coming to a stop if the car doesnt stall it the rpms get low on the verge of stalling but then when the car is completely stopped and it doesnt die it catches idle and holds relatively well. any ideas? im on the verge of buying a high out put altenator to see if that fixes the issue however im not sure . has any one heard of this before? and ive read this has happened to a few people and they never comment on the fixing solution.......
