Did you check your plugs and wires?

there's no skip at all....doesn't sound like a cylinder isn't firing when it's in park or in gear.....it Idles around 600rpm in gear and then all of a sudden drops to 0. I just got back from a hour long drive and everything was fine...no problems.just the smell of gas when i started it after a 3 hour wait.ran fine though no hesitation or bucking...But I'm sure it will act up again when I go out later.

Well the gas smell is probably your fuel lines leaking. Check and replace as needed
