Check the air filter, it's probably clogged.
I also wish someone would answer this question as my 1997 Ford contour does the same thing. It shakes and vibrates very bad when it idles and it idles really low. They set the idle up to make it so it wouldn't die so now when I start it it revs up really bad then it idles down then it idles down to low and shakes I also wish someone would answer this question as my 1997 Ford contour does the same thing.

check for vaccum leaks.
Cars often idle fast when you start them up. The automatic choke will make the car idles fast for a while then the idle speed will slow down, once the engine warms up.
When you turn on the headlights of any car it causes a load (or horsepower drag) on the engine. Your car has an idle problem and the load on the alternator simply exacerbates it.
It could be a dirty air filter or a dirty throttle body.
Warm air coming from the air conditioner compressor should not have anything to do with the timing belt. You probably need to recharge your air conditioning system.
Could be a plugged fuel filter, time for a good tune up.
Either the fuel mix is adjusted wrong or the carb is dirty
lol that's what its suppossed to do... if when idling low it stalls or is really roush then you might have a real problem.
The car seats because of the extra energy it needs for the AC compressor work
It really depends on the make/model of your car. Suspects include: Idle Stepper Motor/control valve, engine CPU, fouled injectors, incorrect spark plugs
