Default Any ideas?

Ok, the Opti was crapping out on my car, but one night when driving home it started acting right and has been for like a week or so. So, I don't think the problem is the Opti. Anyway, what happens is I will drive just fine all around town, and everything goes great, until I am slowing down to a stop. Once the car hits 2K RPMs it will start to vibrate wildly and crap. It pisses me off.

Anybody know what this could be?

IGN module? Where is it located? But I would think that would cause an all around problem, not just as under 2K RPMs. ?
