Default Car stalls sometimes at idle

Sometimes when i pull up at lights the revs go right down until it nearly cuts out and twice it has actually cut out.

I am just running in a new engine and will mention this to my mechanic tommorow but i was just wondering if anyone else has had the same problem.

Is it idle control valve?

Cheers

Could be, are you running a VTA dump valve by any chance?
