My 89 Gt has a mean stumble off idle! I recently put new spark plugs and ran some injector cleaner through it , but still didnt' fix it. Has anyone had similar problems?

Someone please give me a few pointers on this, cuz I'm stumped.

It's dark out now, but I'll check for those things tomorrow. Is there any other things I should check??
