The other day, I stalled my 89 Cherokee Laredo. When I started it back up, it was idling at 3,000 RPMs. I pulled over and checked the throttle cable and vaccum lines, nothing seemed to do anything. I shut it off and when I started it back up, it was idling fine. But ever since then it has been doing some weird things. Sometimes (not all the time) when coming to a stop and put the clutch in, the truck will go to about 100 RPMs, it has stalled once, and then other times, it will idle at from 1400-1800 RPMs. I'm at a lost right now. Air filter and fuel filter only have 500 miles on them. Any help or ideas would be great.
Thanks,
Matt

Also, I have checked the battery and cables, and when it starts to idle weird, I've looked at the battery gauge, and it wasn't doing anything funky.
