throttle position sensor,fitv and/or iacv and have u drained and refilled the coolant at all because there might be air pockets in the coolant also.

more than likely a dirty or bad IACV

Blow the IACV out with light compressed air and I mean like 40psi or less, any more and you will damage the inside and you will have to replace it.

best bet just spray it with some brake cleaner works like a charm!!!
