Default Funny Idle and car dies sometimes??

98 civic cx.. The car idles very low at some points.. usually after coming off the freeway.. I just adjusted the timing and it is still doing the same thing.. Sometimes the car will idle low with a slight shake, and shut off.. It will start up just fine after it dies though. I dont have any check engine lights, no ecu codes, etc.. any ideas??
