Engine Performance problem
1996 Mercury Mystique 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 92000m miles

I just fixed the timing belt pully, the plastic housing on the tesioner broke off completely. The engine now stalls when I come to a stop. Fairly good on the start but it seems to really idle down when I come to a complete stop. I've even put it in neutral going at 100k and just roll and it seems to hold an idle better than when stopped. Help?

Recheck timing marks
check for any vacuum leaks
disconnect negative side on the battery clean idle control valve and reconnect
drive it for few miles
