My cobra will die sometimes after pushing the clutch in to stop at a light. It will restart after sitting for about 10 minutes. It cut out twice going down the road the other day. It has a fuel cell on it. Any ideas? Sensor? Clogged filter?

    it sounds like a idle air control motor and the throttle body caked up with carbon. have a shop check it and verify.
