idle/stall problems 200

So I've got a new problem. My '84 keeps stalling out when I push in the clutch to come to a stop. The idle wavers considerably when in neutral. I've replaced the plugs, checked the timing, and done some preliminary tests on the Idle Air Control which a buddy said to check out.

Could it be a fuel problem or a bad sensor? Not too sure what to check out next. It has gotten progressively worse the last week or so. It starts every time with no problem. Any ideas or suggestions would be most appreciated. Normally when the idle wavers the oil pressure guage drops accordingly with the engine from it's normal position around 4 down to 2.5 or 3. Thanks in advance.
