Default 250 RPM?!?!

Whats the deal? My car will sometimes idle at around 600, but then sometimes I'll pull up to a light and take it out of gear and BAM! It'll go down to around 250 RPM and stay there. The next time I stop it will usually be back up......not always though. Seems completely inconsistant. What the deal with this??? Anyone get this in their car?

Sure I'm sure. 250 RPM. It doesn't stall, but sometimes it'll start bucking a little like it's about to stall. So MiGs, same problem, no solution huh? Sucks.

Huh, you mean to tell me your tach STARTS at 500?? Maybe yours, but mine starts at 0. Well, it doesn't have a "0" on the guage, but we'll assume that when your tach is at rest, its at 0. Right around 250 RPM there is a small line on the dial, which seems out of place when compared to the scaling of the other lines. That line, I believe, designates the stall point. And that is where my tach is sometimes resting. While at that position is sounds like if it goes ANY lower, it will stall.
