Hi there,

OK common problems are MAP sensor on the fire wall, and the vacuum hose to the manifold, manifold gasket leak, idle control motor at the throttle plate, best you start with a fault scan, the MAP sensor should come up if it is the problem.

You will need to take it to a work shop to get the scanner hooked up, it only takes a few min, it should not cost very much.
