I replaced the Idle air control and the fuel pressure regulator due to stalling at red lights. Now it just drops to about 500 rpm but stays running until you accelerate. Once I step on the gas it wants to stall out unless I jump on the gas and it will just studder and then go. If on highway it is fine unless I let my foot off and the rpms drop below 2000 it will stumble when I start to press done until I hit a point it will then catch up with the rpms. They just seem tro dip at first then catch up. What could this be?
