Pontiac Grand Am Rpm Problem

It's a 3.3L SE and I was wondering what could cause low RPM engine loping in park and neutral only. I just replaced the park/neutral switch and granted it could use a bit of adjusting but other than that i'm not sure what is causing it. I haven't checked the EGR or PCV valves because I took it to an o'reilly's and put an OBD on it and it gave a code for the park/neutral switch. Yet here it is still loping between 600-1400 RPM's

most likely a vacuum leak. check the fuel pressure regulator for ruptured diaphram.

Would that only cause loping for park and neutral? It drives just fine not even a stutter
