[ST] Stalling at Low RPM

[Randy Busing <randyb661@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My 2000 ST suddenly started with this shameful behavior right at the 
start of a "Ride for Kids" where I was surrounded by about 1,000 of my 
closest riding buddies, most on Harleys. It acts like an electrical 
problem, but I'm not sure. At first it would stall suddenly when 
letting out the clutch from a stop, but then later it would even stall 
when coasting to a stop with the clutch in, and in gear. It idles OK 
for awhile, but will suddenly stall without warning. It runs fine at 
other rpms. I needed to use some revs to get it away from a stop 
without stalling, and even then it didn't always work.

I thought about the clutch safety switch, the sidestand switch, bad 
gas, dirty injectors, a bad sensor, etc. I also disconnected the ECM 
and reconnected it to do a complete power cycle. I guess I need a shop 
manual at this point, since I haven't been able to do much 
troubleshooting without it.

Sound familiar to anyone?
