I’m having a tiny bit of a rough idle in my 94’

I’ve been having an extremely slight rough idle cabin is a little shakey nothing alarming. No lights on the dash. I’m a new owner and likely over paranoid just don’t know if it’s normal. I know when I bought it I’d be working on it. One time I did turn it on and it bounced 200-300 rpm a couple times then recovered. Looking for any pointers would be appreciated.

My new 1994 C4

Picked this up yesterday. It’s a 6-speed with 75k miles and a really nice sounding cat-back exhaust. It’s my first Corvette and my first older car, and I’m planning to use it as a daily.

I don’t drive a ton the longest regular trip will be about 60 miles each way between college and home, probably twice a month.

It only needs a little work. head lights freak out when I turn them on so I ordered that kit already, front left wheel squeaks when first driving, owner assumed cause it was barely driven and when it warms up it’s good, may have to address that if it persists and needs tires other then that seems good to go.

I know about the major C4/LT1 issues, like the OptiSpark and cooling system, but what else should I keep an eye on or address preventively?

Also, since the garage where I can really work on it is about 90 minutes away, would it be smart to keep a small emergency tool and spare-parts kit in the car? What would you include?
