I have/had this problem. First time was about a year ago and did it for about a week.. Then a few months ago again did it for about a week.. When coming to a stop weather traffic lights or slowing down to go up the driveway it would drop revs, shake and occasionally turn off.. First time I crapped myself cause you loose steering etc.. I did abit of reading on here but there is no difinate answer. I took it to my then tuner and they fiddled with the tune but still had the problem. Im on my second battery in about 2 years and I have a decent stereo (2 12" subs 2 amps off the ICC) but I also have a capacitor..

My problem comes and goes, next time it pops up I'll try and find a fix but for now she is sweet..

Clean yout throttle body, might be your alternator, maybe battery, TPS. sould be alot of things. Some guys have had their throttle body changed etc..

my ba also has this problem but it seems to only do it when it is warming up. When it gets up to temp it is fine. could this be a cold start tune problem??

dunno if its any help but my ute was idleing real low and a bit shonky almost to the point of cutout (didnt notice any difference with lights etc) but it turned out to be the intake manifold joiner had a small hole (perished near hose clamp) and also two of my coil packs were arcing out on the rocker cover sending the ecu nutty
