Everytime the idle bounces below 500 rpm either catches itself or stalls. no prob any other time and car runs well.

Start by checking for vacuum leaks. Also check your TPS. There'* a test for that in the tech info testing area.

When was the last time the throttle body was cleaned? Possibly a sticky IAC valve is causing the vacuum leak that is giving you the lope.

Do what I do.. tell people you have a cam
