1) They do have a throttle cable. Sounds like a common fault of a sticking idle control valve. Needs to clean it out with carb cleaner

2)If he's right then its the lambda sensor

ICV is on the throttle body. It's a pain to get to, buy a haynes manual, it'll help you loads more than anyone trying to describe it on here

Lambda, dunno, but I think they're quite pricey. Scrappy maybe?

could be, but if it's not, it'll be cheaper than getting a brand new one.

check the price of a new one anyway
