The "loping" idle is the D-Jetronix's correct response to an idle 
speed that is too high.  There are many reasons why the idle speed 
might be too high; here are a few that you should check out.

Idle speed adjusted too high.
Ignition timing too advanced.
Vacuum hoses disconnected.
Throttle valve switch misadjusted.
Intake manifold nuts loose.
intake air distributor output hoses mis-installed and leaking.
etc.
