Gave it a tune-up today. That consists of spark plugs and an air filter. There's nothing else you can do to them. It did help. The old spark plugs were very old, and the gaps were huge. I got iridium plugs; they should last as long as the car. It was tricky getting the right air filter, but eventually it got worked out. It now idles smoothly and doesn't pop when I back off to slow down. All I need now is the catalytic converter assembly and this thing will be in good shape; it's due in next week. I still haven't figured out the steering problem, and I may not. But Lord willing, I'll come up with something sooner or later, but I can drive it now. The rest is just cosmetic work.
