Default Got a flutter when i idle?

1990 starts great, runs great, but when i come to a stop light the idle flutters a bit, with my battery gauge showing a dip in electricity? I have a brand new battery, they tested the alternator and it was ok, got new egr, new spark plugs...totally frustrated. Any ideas?

Would replacing my fuel pump and ICM (ignition control module) help?

Try OHMing your injectors I would bet you will find 1 or more bad it is a common problem for multech injectors . Talk to Jon at FIC injectors he will get you straight and for a reasonable price. I had the same problem changed injectors to Bosch III and you wouldnt believe the difference. If you need more info pm me being I just did this 1 month ago .
