Stalling / rough idle problem. Help needed! 200 1988

Gary, our 88 commuter car has a problem. (all symptoms relayed by wife)

Warmed up or still cold, while stopping at a stop light the engine will idle rougher than normal. SOMETIMES the car will stall completly when you stop. The car does start right back up again and motors on.

I kind of poked and sniffed at the car today and nothing jumped out at me. I had it in the shop last week (no time to work on it myself these days) and they replaced the AMM (ouch!) and replaced the plugs and fuel filter (my request on that one) and it appeared to be fine. 1 week later, we're back at it.

HELP!

Thanks in advance,

Chris
