changed plugs and o2 sensor(upstream), wires, catylytic converter, map sensor. throttle position sensor, distributor, distributor cap, and idle air control.

* cuts off while coming to a stop, rpm drops under .500

* will immediately start up after shutting down

* runs great while driving at normal speed

* frustrating!!

Disconnect battery negative side
Fully open throttle valve on throttle body.
Using approved cleaner, clean throttle body bore, throttle valve and all passages.
Use soft cleaning pad to clean throttle body bore and throttle valve.
Ensure throttle valve-to-throttle body bore contact surfaces are clean so throttle valve will not be held open.
Using compressed air, dry throttle body.
reconnect battery
start engine
