Jesse, try cleaning the IAC solenoid (and throttle body as well).

I've got the procedure up on the SpeedTweaks "Tips and Tricks" page.

You wanna hear something weird? The same thing was happening on my '89 3.9. A few months ago, I switched from Fram oil filters to a K&N oil filter, and the problem stopped. Could the oil filter have done that?!?

I'm not sure about the "89" but a lot of MOPARS
had a shut down if oil pressure got too low.so it wouldn't destroy engine.
