Rough Idle

I have a 2007 C6 LT2 Auto with an Airaid induction and Corsa Sport exhausts and a tune. A couple of weeks ago I began to notice that at a stop light my idle would drop off and it acted like the engine was going to die. When I drive normally there does not seem to be any problem. Does the Corvette have a fuel filter and is it easily accessable? Any other ideas as to what could cause this? Appreciate your help.

Bad gas, dirty MAF sensor, loose spark plug wire? I would start there. Who did your tune? Maybe they can scan it. Is it throwing any codes? Fuel filter is accessable (only by a mechanic of course)

I ran it nearly out of gas then put in fresh, a bottle of STP gas treatment, checked all the plug wires, so my next step will be the air filter/MAF. I have not gotten any codes but thank you very much for your input. I will keep plugging.

Make sure you use MAF sensor approved cleaner and don't touch any internal parts on it. CRC makes a good one you can get at the auto parts store. Check with the tuner too if possible.
