sounds like a vacuum leak. Check all the connections. Also check the MAF element as it may be very dirty and your engine isn't getting enough fuel to maintain idle.

i had the same problem a while back and it was the maf element that was causing it.

dirty IAC... forgot about that. It's easy to fix so I'd check that first.
