Default Newbie Needs Help

New to the forum looking for help. Just saved a 88LX speed density 5.0 5spd. Car runs great when cold but once it warms up it idles down really low. Seems like the car is going to cut off but it doesnt (it may dip below 500 rpm 2 or three times then clears up on its own). Checked voltage at TPS could on get reading with car running set voltage at 1.19.
That was the lowest i could get it to set to. Was told to get it as close to 1.00 as possible. Is this correct?? Is this my problem or something else i might need to check??

Thanks for any help
