dirty TB, injectors ... run seafoam thru the tank .. and get some TB CLEANER.... there also a DIY to clean your IAC sensor...

what's your cold idle rpm ? it should be about 1000 cold and 600 warm. if not do the TB cleaning especially the IAC port, then go from there. IAC should hold those rpm's. maybe EGR (not sure) ??
