Probably the IAC or TPS. Take out the IAC and clean it and clean the spot where the IAC goes in. TPS can't be cleaned just replace it if it is bad.

Here's a tip too.

Reset the computer. #1 With Engine NOT running,Turn the headlamps on, disconnect the negative battery cable. #2 Wait 15 minutes... #3 turn light switch off, reconnect negative battery cable. #4 Start Engine, let idle for 3 minutes. and U R ready to go.
