I was referring to cracked solder joints inside the DME itself, not the DME relay. Regards.

ok heres the latest update.
swaped out the DME relay and the car no longer shuts off on me but now the idle is wacky, it runs very rich 9.8 on the afm and wouldnt lean out no matter how much i adjusted the LS POWER PERFECT Piggy Back Fuel Controller.
then all of a sudden about 20mins of racking my brain it was ideling perfect so i took it out for a test drive, car seemed to run ok but the tac started gong nuts jumping all over the place.
just when i thought i have the problem solved another one jumps up to bite me in the _ _ _
and now its back to running to rich at idle ugaaa

Sound like you fixed the stalling problem the easy way: it was the relay. I think your new problems are unrelated.

PROBLEM SOLVED!!
cheaked the dme and the connector was loose
i guess when it got hot it wasnt able to make enough contact if that makes any sence?
altho i still needed the DME relay and i also went and replaced the cap and rotor along with a new coil just in case
agin i want to thank you guys for helping out, are on me lol.
