350 tbi dies/stalls at idle/ shifting into reverse

Has the issue been resolved? I have been having similar issues and am following along closely.

It seems to be. I haven’t had any issues since the mechanic worked on it. He said he cleaned the IAC, which I thought was interesting since I replaced it already. But, he also mentioned that there was some other port or line or something that needed to be cleaned at the same time as the IAC, which I know I didn’t do, so maybe that was it.

Nonetheless, seems to be running just fine now.
 
Replacing the iac only, gets you a clean plunger, the passages in the throttle body are still grungey and restrict air flow. Brake clean and wire pipe cleaner are needed to do complete the job.
Many of the vacuum lines on tbi are brittle and need inspection, replacement
