without much else to go on, sounds like the AAV under the throttle body is sticking.

I have the same exact problem with my '91 toyota 4x4 pickup. i think it has somethin to do with adjusting the idling but i have no clue how to do that. i think you have to have a special wrench because i have nothing that i can fit up in there. please help!

Nobody can say if it's 100% going to fix it, but I'd say it's a good place to start.
