Default Idles Way Too Low

[:@]Ok, I'm sure this has been covered a million times before, but I couldnt find it. My car dies when I come to a stop, or slow down too much. Does fine at high speeds, but wont idle worth a damn. Once I start it back up, it idles fine, untill I get going again and stop. Seems to idle fine in park, but if its in drive and I'm braking at a light or whatever, it idles way down and dies. It's driving me crazy, any suggestions?

While in park and while you press the brake pedal, does it idle low too? How old are you plugs, wires, distro rotor, and distro cap? Check those items or change them out if they're old.
