740 Turbo - Sputtering

Sputters when hot or cold. Sometimes cuts out very briefly if I hit on the gas. Runs fine and seems to have normal power at higher RPMs and under load.
Also, sometimes will stall out when idleing once I start the car? There are no air leaks, and hall sensor seems to be fine?
suggestions?

    740 Turbo - Sputtering

    Have you cleaned the throttle body and IAC (Idle Air Control) valve recently?
    If not that may resolve some of these problems. At any rate, using a good throttle body cleaner on these parts every couple years or so isn't a bad idea. Check 700/900 FAQ for details on cleaning these components if you aren't familar with the procedures. Hope this helps.
