Bronco stalls in reverse

Hey guys when i'm in reverse in my truck and i go to stop and put it into drive the RPM's drop real low like its going to stall. When i do the same thing and turn the steering wheel it usually does stall. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it but when you shut my truck off somewhere in the engine compartment there is a woosh type sound, like if you were too blow air out of something. Any help is appreciated, i'm thinking its a vacum line of some sort but have no idea where it is.

My 89 was doing the same thing without "woosh type sound". It also stalled when shifted into park and wouldn't stay running with the remote start. I cleaned the K&N, changed my fuel filter, and used some injector cleaner. That solved it all for me. It still idles a little rough for a few seconds with the remote start, but it seems better everyday.

I'm not sure if this helps, but when you have the heat on it smells like its blowing some of the exhaust through the vents. I really want to find out what this is, please help!
