Funny problem with 740 700 1988

I recently had my car taken for a tune up at a well known, but ill reputed chain in Canada called "Canadian Tire", or affectionately known as "Crappy tire". The car came out running worse than when it went in. My problem is that when I come to a stop (ie. stoplight), the car sort of for the lack of a better word "burps", with the engine suddenly lowering the rpm, and then rising back up to near 1000. This is EXTREMELY annoying........I am thinking that the wrench monkeys at Crappy tire gapped the spark plugs wrong, or then did not gap them at all to cause this problem. Any suggestions?
