Far too many things but I would check the MAF sensor and Idle Air Control Valve. Are there any Check Engine Light codes?

Did you check the IACV? Clean it out. Clean every connector under the hood for corrosion and fill back up with electrical grease. Do you have an aftermarket air intake (popcharger)? Also check for vacuum leaks: broken vacuum lines, manifold leaks. We need more info.
