Default why is my car dying?????

ok im having some real weird issues and so far i havent found anything that helps. i got the car from a dealership during christmas last year. when i test drove it everything was fine and the car ran fine. i drove it two hours home and thats when it started acting up. i found out my air check valve system had a cracked hose so we got ride of it and deleted it out of the computer. i also replaced the spark plugs and wires. the problem comes when sometimes my car wants to die when i push the clutch in but the issue isnt consistent. also if im driving down the road and kick the car out of gear sometimes it wants to rev up a little to around 2k. also on a side note we checked the engine for vacuum pressure and its running around 14 lbs. i know this is low but i cant find a leak if there is one and i have a ls6 valley cover the person before me put in as well.

Is your SES light on? My car was dying recently and I had a crank sensor code so I replaced it and now the problem is gone.
