What the Fudgens?

I cant figure this crap out....lately when I've been driving my car it's been feeling like it want's to stall out from time to time....I'll sit in traffic and everything will run fine....the nall of a sudden the RPM's drop from 800-600 then the engine starts sputtering...I tap the el-gaso and the car starts running right again and then idles back down to 800...then runs fine. The car act's like it's goign to stall out...but never does...never goes lower than 600...she just starts sputtering than...but always kicks back up....Then when I'm driving like in a low gear 1-3rd the car somtimes will feel like it's doing that stalling thing and start sputtering a bit....then after a few seconds runs like regular...what can it be...I have a new Red Top battery and all my terminal connections are looked down tight...err ugh...I think. but what would cause a car to do that?

before you say "OptiFart" Mine is and has always been dry.

Sounds about like my problem. I'll know more once we change the plugs/wires this weekend.
