After being stopped at a stop sign or light, when I press on the gas the car feels like it's about to stall, then it kicks in and starts driving just fine. I just got a smog check and noticed that the idle changed to 500 RPM when I went to pick it up. What is the typical RPM that it should be at so this doesn't happen anymore? Is that all I have to change, or could it be a bigger problem?

Thanks
