stall problem solved
Couple of days ago I adjusted the idle speed on my '97 SE and the car is not stalling anymore! Now when I crank it the revs don't go down anymore, they stay at 600-700.
It took me 3 seconds. For all those want to do this, don't confuse the stop screw on the throttle body, this screw should not be touched. There is a special idle adjustment screw closer to the fire wall.

Actually I did that too. But I found that after a while, the engine adjusts itself to the low idle again (like after a week). I cranked up the idle again to 750, and it dropped to like 600 again.
To test my theory, I dropped the idle to like 500 (engine shook but never stalled). After a couple days, idle was back up to 600 again. So, it seems whatever you set it to, the ECU will always adjust it back to 600.
