Mine is having idling problems. Am sure it's either the Throttle Position Sensor on the intake or the Idle Air Control Valve. In your' case it definitely sounds like the TPS. That's what i'd check first.

My Bronco II was having Similar issues. If You have a Stick, I would say that You May want to Look into the Clutch! I check into it with mine and sure enough that is all it took!

Bogging down when You Give it More Gas? If You Have a Stick Shift, Look into The Clutch!
We were having a Bog Down Issue With Our Bronco II, And the clutch seemed a bit off!
Replaced the Slave Cylinder and Pressure Plate, Now She Runs Perfect!

I had the same problem with my 88 2.8 5-speed, it was the Idle Air Control Valve which I replaced. I also removed and cleaned the throttle body.
