I am hating my car more with each passing day.... hears the newest problem. Car starts up fine .. drives fine ... then when i come to a stop... my idle screws up bad ... she revs up and down between 1 grand and drops below 500.... does this afew times ... then stalls out. any idea? This only happens when in gear ... if in neutral.. she idles at 800 rpm. Kinda annoying that i have to start my car up at every red light ...lol

Yeah, that's most likely it. Can you help diagnose it, as I seem to have my own problems with my alternator kicking in, so I don't have the experience to help others diagnose it.

Intake/vacuum leak you should also look for.
