Sounds like the IAC Motor located on the back of the throttle body. Try cleaning both with a toothbrush and carb cleaner. If it it dosent work you will probally have to replace it around $60.

yupp, IAC - do this to test it, with engine running, turn on A/C, place tranny in gear (reverse, drive) and operate the Power Steering (turn wheel slightly left or right). the Idle should remain steady or increase slightly. If idle drops or engine stumbles the IAC is bad.

i just replaced my TPS and cleaned the IAC, runs a lot smoother. you might as well do both. the new TPS was $40 at NAPA.
