ls1 cutting in and out and idle drops very low tonight on the way home from night class. my 99 camaro ss starting to cut in and out under light acceleration. it felt kind of like a spark problem as it didnt do it every single time. im gonna try to explain it best as i can say im slightly hitting the gas and the rpms are rising at a steady but slow rate the rpm climb would stop beifly then continue riseing and if i held it at a certain rpm it would do the same nd cut it and out randomly. i went home and cleaned both grounds on the fender well and also on the adiator support and went for another drive. then i oticed evey time i hit the clutch either between gears or at stop lights the rpms would drop very low, much lower then usual. at every light it would drop to 3-400 and stay their for about 6 seconds. please guys help me figure this out.

wow not a single answer before i figured it out. i checked for codes, nothing. i started cleaning the iac and tps. then went to the maf and was blocked up about 25% with loose leaves on the screen. i just went for a ride and so far seems great the idle didnt drop once.
