Default stalling when i stop!!

i have just got my car going after doing a head gasket etc and when i started it last night it ran spot on but when i stop the revs go so low that it stalls most of the time,but when it settles it ticksover perfectly. The only thing different is i have fitted a bd10 on the inlet side but this shouldnt make any difference i dont think. Do i need to adjust the idle control valve?????......any ideas.

All i would suggest is reset the ecu by unplugging it for about 15 minutes then take it on a steady driver to re-learn it's values.

I've done the same and mine is doing the same as yours, although mines not a cossie, i've done the above and now it seems fine.

you need to set the base idle speed by setting the air bypass with the bleed screw with the engine hot and the ISCV unplugged.
