icv or throttle position sensor maybe. Take the throttle body apart and clean up everything with carb cleaner, check all the vaccum hoses are plumbed in properly aswell

all fixed, we took the icv out and put another one in, but that made it worse so we put the one that was originaly in but turned it around and it runs perfect now. wouldn't of thought that it would make any difference which way it goes in.
