Probably a faulty MAF Sensor or IAC motor, but I'd check for vacuum leaks first.

unplug the maf and see if that makes it run any better.

Unplug the maf and see if idle changes. If it does you can get it home but be easy on it.

Boom and Boom. Unplugging the MAF will cause the PCM to run default tables and if the car runs better with it unplugged, then the MAF is toast. As Derek said, don't goose it and go WOT, since the PCM is guessing at the volume of air the engine is getting and not an exact measurement. If it runs the same, then let us know and we'll go down the list :lol:

Nice, if you're looking for a replacement MAF on the cheap, Morad's has them for a good price.
