system too lean or too rich.. the only thing i can think is that ,aybe because i run a high fuel PSI (too high maybe), and it has ONLY happend in severe heat when i first start up tha car and drive a little and it stalls... i think it have to do with a slightly off vavle adjustment, and too much gas.. bogging it down, because off nitrous some times i bog off the line ie too much gas.... adn once the car warms up even on a hot day it is always fine... i hate to do another adjustment becasue the car runs so good now (engine driving once warm, and very quiet, and also good smooth idle) so i may just leave it, it has only happend twice...

OBDII is REALLY picky about a/f readings

ehh the idle gets REAL low b4 it happens.. but once it warms up like i said it is fine.. i MAY bump up the idle a hair so it idles a little high... cause even at good smooth warmed up idle it is still a little low... so maybe bumping it up would help keeping it frm staling when it is not warmed up.

advise on idle adjusting?

Adjust the idle screw on the tb counter clockwise. Beings your squeezing, I wouldn't mess with the ign. timing at all.
