Default while cruising, putting it in neutral and car dies

i don't know what the problem is and its getting really annoying. when i am cruising and i push in the clutch to let my car in neutral, the car dies. but sometimes it drops really low and you can see everything dim for a second and the car jumps right back up. i've search and came up with all kinds of ideas. i clean my iacv and still does not help the problem. i have a d16z6

if i let off the gas and then push in the clutch it will most of the time act like it will die and jump back up but 25 percent of the time it will die. its really annoying when i get to a stop light.

I used to have this problem as well.. I messed with my idle screw a little bit and it helped, didnt even increase my idle all it did was prevent it from stalling out.
