Sounds to me like it's either a few things, cr*ppy fuel, and or idle valve/screw. Simply buy carb cleaner, take out air bleed screw, spray and clean it, then spray into where it came from and wipe oily mess,if can,take air pipes to throttle body off, and give throttle b*tterfly/s a good spray and wipe,repeat till clean.put all back together,input bled screw,start car,allow to get choke off, then

Once choke is off, you can then tighten screw till 8-900 revs as ur idle, or 950 if worried about staling:)

Unplug all the electric plugs to the engine and spray with contact cleaner.

All electrical plugs should be sprayd on an old car, the corrosion causes a break in the circuit, i had a similar problem. Also cleaned my idle control valve, checkd air pipes for leaks, cleand airflow sensor with contact cleaner, replaced injector seals. Car runs fine now.
