Finally got the motor started help!!! I just got my 6.0 with camaro intake and accessories fired up for the first time and I'm having a problem keeping it running. It fires right up and it doesn't seem to want to idle. If you hold the rpm above idling it runs great. But as soon as you let off it stumbles and dies. It still smells a little rich but may just be due to the open headers. If anybody could give me suggestions of potential problems I would appreciate it.

Use the BCM controls to increase the idle speed. See if it affects idle. Easiest thing is to just clean the iac and injectors in a coffee can of kerosene overnight them flush them out with Coleman camp fuel. Gas goes stale and sour over winter in your lawn mower and just the same as in your fuel rail. The gas evaporates and leaves the resin solids and get forced into the injectors and plug the holes. Soak them.

When I first fired it up it would idle good but when you gave it gas it would die. I traced this problem to a open vacuum port. It seems now that I plugged it its doing the complete opposite now. Running great with throttle but dyeing at idle. Does this still sound like a fuel injector problem?
