My 91 used to have an erratic idle like that until I gave it a tune-up: plugs, wires, cap & rotor. Has your engine ever been treated to any new ignition parts?

^x2. besides it being an 89 iroc, what else can you tell us about the car. I am thinking that once you give it a nice tune up you will hav a better idea of whats wrong.
