This is sounds like the same problem that I had with my '86 Syncro. I
did
several things at the same time and one/some/all of them fixed the
problem.

1. Adjusted spring tension on AFM.

2. Cleaned out the port on the Idle Stabilizer. This is the little port
   for a vacuum hose. There seems to be a little jet inside that was
   all gunked up with oily dust.

3. Replaced the rubber connector boot on whatever it is to which the
   little vacuum hose connects.

I still have an occasional problem with stalling while running the A/C,
but
winter is almost here so I won't worry about it till spring;)

Check for vacuum leaks?
