Idle issues

My 1992 Chevrolet Camaro RS 5.0L is having issues with idle. I replaced the rotor button cap plugs and wires. Also had to recently replace the battery bolt because it was stripped. I haven’t had the car long and trying to find out why it’s wanting to stall at idle but usually straightens back up. What could be causing this. I put in a carburetor and injector cleaner in the fuel last time I filled it up. And usually I run unleaded plus gas but I put regular unleaded in it by mistake last time. Could this be causing it to run like crap? What can I do to get it running better

Mine was doing the same thing. Ended up being a wire was touching the fan blade when it would kick on. Simple fix. Hopefully yours is the same.
