Default Fixed my sputtering and stalling at idle!
Turns out the fuel pump ecu was to blame for my hick ups, stalling, and CEL at idle. I followed these instructions and now it works perfectly!

I didn't take pictures while I worked and I regret it.

Just a random question but has your fuel filter been replaced?

Bad fuel pump ecu.....is very common problem as these SC's rack up the miles.Very easy DIY. Junk yard part $25-$40 bucks.
