first thing to do is check the basics 1 air leaks ie, vacuum hoses 2nd clean the throttle butterfly/housing 3rd the engine coolant temp sensor in the cyl head/ thermostat housing if thats gone out of spec it will not fuel the engine correctly

Several possibilities. Try stopping the car with the parking brake and see if you notice as much shimmy. While loose tie rod ends can cause problems, it sounds more like the rotors may need resurfacing. A worn wheel bearing could cause a problem. Jack the car up so the wheels are off the ground and see if you can move the wheel back and forth. Loose tie rod ends would also show up with this test.

if you pay for cheap parts,that will happen,buy the best parts for brakes

1989?? have a funny feeling it could be either crank sensor or the ignition module ,pretty basic vehicle electrics in them days

Here is the most common cause of surges and stalls at stops and low erratic idle speed and rough idle, it is the idle speed control air-bypass valve and throttle valve (IAC for short), they get full of gunk over the miles and cause idle issues (stalls, low idle) like yours, Get a can of intake cleaner from any local parts store, not carb spray, intake cleaner, it is made by a company called CRC, remove the air intake hose to the engine, hold the idle high so the engine won't stall, then spray the can of cleaner into the intake while keeping the engine running, use at least 1/2 the can, shut down the engine and disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, then restart and complete a number of mixed driving cycles, town, freeway, stop and go etc., after a few days the problem will go away as the system will relearn to the clean intake.

Under the dash, drivers side, on auxiliary fuse and relay panel. You will need to drop the knee panel for access.

mostly the computer or the ecm but try to reset it to default maybe will work...
