Idling problems may be cause buy a number of issues.  You may check out the fast idle control valve and PCV if they would need cleaning.  You can check out the timing it may be advanced, that is why you feel that the car runs hard.

My 1997 mitsubishi galant idles at 1000rpm. soon as on gear(like drive/reverse) rpm drops to 500 rpm and runs rough. if I run the A/C the engine runs rough and seems like it has no power to move on drive...

Have you run an error check on vehicle. You can have this done for free at most auto parts stores. Almost sounds like the idle sensor is having issues, but can not be sure at this point. Make sure the choke isn't sticking or hanging up if carbureted.

Does a new iac valve need to be adjusted before installing in a 2000 mitsubishi galant ES 2.4L

NO, the on-board computer system will reset the IAC unit automatically, drive the car at over 20 mph for more then 2 min.

My misubishi galant 1998 ES have check engine light and code PO505, any posible solutions?? It's shutting off constantly

Code P0505 is a problem with the IAC (idle air control) which regulates the idle speed. To check it quickly, disconnect the IAC connection located below the throttle body near the firewall. Start the car and the idle should run around 1300 rpm at idle. If this is the case then the likely cause it a bad idle motor. The cost of a new one is $110 at Pep Boys or $30 at a Pick n Pull. Keep me posted, thx.

1996 Galant runs rough until gas pedal pressed about quarter way down,then runs fine.Car is running lean.Not sure how to check if fuel pump is working correct,or maybe MAS?

You should have your TPS and EGR looked at as those cause rough idles...Other causes are bad idle air control valve, bad plugs, bad distributor cap & rotor, a bad wire, bad O2 sensor, etc...

car out of cruise control flutters or runs rough from 45 mph to 55 mph and once over 55 mph runs smooth. I notice from 45 to 55 the rpm guage moves with flutter or rough running engine. when i put in cruise control it smooths out.

1989 Dodge Ram 50 Pickup ..Hesitating and running rough when in gear.

Maybe just bad gas. Change fuel filter, Add some fuel conditioner to it, or fuel treatment,with moisture remover, and top it up with fresh fuel.
