i suspect you have a possible air leak. or throttle problem. check idle air control system. have the vehicle plugged in to try to narrow the search.hope this helps

before you do anything i would suggest that you get hold of some carb and injection cleaner and spray that in to your intake and this will clean up any carbon build up inside the intake and see how you go from there before doing any of the other things
