Engine wants to die at stop lights

kenicb said

are there any electrical issues that are happening at the same time? dimming of lights etc.

I thought dimming lights on these older cars was "normal" when the engine idles too low, as in when it wants to die out?

I have a big cam in my 318 and when she idles in drive the lights do dim....no problem once I get off of idle.
