Default Problems on 85 Vette

I have a 1985 Corvette. It had stalling issues at red lights. When the temp. got up to about 175 it would stall sometimes. I have had Chevy garages and other mechanics look at it. They changed fuel filters and a complete tune up. When I start it now the idle is about 1100 to 1200. It again came to a red light and dropped below 500 and stalled several times. Now a week after tune up, it starts up and stalls out. When I try to restart it, it turns over till I think the battery is getting low and then starts. Any ideas.

besides the tune up what are the specifics of the car? is it stock? any mods? You may want to move this thread to the Tech/Performance. I'm sure you're get a better response.

I'm having a similar problem. Look for my thread today. I captured incriminating data on Diacom test software.
