Could be a sticky IAC
Could be too low of timing
Could even just need a tune-up

dare to keep kids off drugs. ya i remember that. made me not want a cigarette ever. haha. i think if you can rev the engine in park then your time could be fine. but when it stalls can you start it up right away? i think the idle speed to set too low, or timing is off.
