Weird Low Idle

I am getting a really wierd low Idle when i stop the car at red lights, or when I park. The RPMs fluctuate between 400 and 800 and if let to sit to long, the car just shuts off. I just had a dynomax muffler put on saturday, and this started happening sunday night. We did have the battery disconnected for welding, and when the idle drops the lights dim, so they might be connected. If anyone has any opinions, I would really appreciate it. The car is drivable, just really tricky at long stop lights Thanks in Advance.

Dynomax gave you a problem too huh?

Got an update. Threw a code yesterday, got it checked and It was O2 banks system running lean. Got a bottle of fuel injector cleaner that I am going to add when I next fill up. On the way home from work today, the light turns off, and the car starts running like a champ Guess "Magic" does work!!
