I have the same thing on my V8. The idle would slowly drop, then shudder, and jump back up to 650 or so. Are you seeing it change like that, or is it a steady low RPM?

When I hooked up the duty cycle meter, I can see the display values slowly drop, then when the hiccup happens, the numbers suddenly jump back up and the cycle starts over again, about every 30-40 seconds.

Somebody on another thread said he fixed this by installing a new ECU. Apparently the old one was not responding quickly enough to inputs once the system went into closed loop operation (over 80 C). I have yet to bite that bullet.
