TX FD idle problem?

When I give the car a little gas, the needle on its way back down would kind of stop at 1000 then bounce for like 2 seconds then finally go back to set idle. Is this a problem or is this just how its suppose to be? Any help will be very appreciated.

Our '94 does that too; don't know if it can be easily corrected... we don't worry about it.

Check your dashpot and make sure it's adjusted properly and that it has the proper resistance.

What ECU are you running. Stock port engine? Stock anything? Intake setup still stock.... injectors sizes..... Need more info to point you in a direction Sir.

Also your oil pressure gauge is slightly concerning.
