I would thoroughly check these items:

Vacuum leaks

Mechanical timing (aka cams to belt to crank)

Electrical timing

And.....any CEL's?
 
ok remove your intake tube. look on throttle body near firewall on the inside while car is running.
should see two holes. put finger over the top hole. if car idles fine after it is your idle air valve.. if not cover bottom hole. if idles fine after that then it is your fitv. if that does not fix it cover both holes. if your car does not die then you have a vacuum leak... if it does you have a coolant problem.



try that..
