random stall

My car runs fine, but every once and a while when im just idling my rpms will drop down to about 500 for a sec, and sometimes stall. Haven't noticed any other problems with it. Anyone know what the problem could be? or what i should check? oh, its a 95 GT, EFI.

RE: random stall

I would clean both the IAC and throttle body and see if this doesn't help cure the trouble.

RE: random stall

I have a friend with an 88 and he says his idle will dip down then come back up and so forth. Well he cleaned out his idle throttle body, and he said that worked (for about 10k miles), until it got dirty again.
