Idle problems

I also have an 87' a good piece of information would be whether it sustains the 3000 rpms for a few seconds or not. If it does then your fine 750 rpms is what they are supposed to idle at. If you look on the inside of your hood thats what it says. when you start it up in the morning it may be shutting off because its still running a little to rich, give it a little gas for a few seconds and it will clear up it literally just sounds like it needs to clear its throught, once it leans out it will be good.
