My wobbly idle (archive)

I have an 83 320i with a wobbly idle. When its cold, its fine.. But when its starting to warm up, and i push in the clutch, sometimes the idle will drop too much, too quickly, and i'll stall out. Once im warmed up all the way though, that usually doesnt happen.. But while sitting in neutral, The idle will dip around from about 800 - 1000.. And sometimes, it doesnt even happen.. I recently fixed the vacuum advance, and that cured a huge problem. Replaced many breather hoses and vacuum lines.. So im pretty sure its not that.. Could it be my fuel pump? Please help me!
