Default 94 100S keeps randomly dying when not in motion

Some times when I start it, it dies if I dont shift quickly into D or R. A month ago it used to die as soon as I shift into D or R without quickly pushing the gas (it did not die back then if it stayed in P or N). When I am driving and come to a stop it somtimes, not always, would die and some other times it would want to die and then come back to life (you can see the RPM going down almost to zero and then come back). Also, when I am driving in the city the "Check Engine" light comes ON and stays ON and sometimes it goes away. I took it to a mechanic and he said its the O2 sensors (from the codes he pulled out of the diagnostics board), so I replaced them. I still have the same problem and the "Check Engine" light still comes and goes. Any ideas ?

it'd have a 12valve 2.8 and I'd look at the idle stableizer valve.
