try disconnecting your battery for a minute or two to reset your ECU. should not have to do that and if that is it, it could indicate a much larger problem but that may get you running.

i just changed my iac valve, that was the problem for me.
check for loose connections to the maf plug and plugs on the throttle body, maybe one just came loose cause it wasnt clipped all the way in

It took me so long to figure that out on my '90 dodge pickup. had it worked on and the guy put the wrong size vacuum hose on. when the engine got warm the hose expanded and lost pressure. pissed me off so bad
OP, any progress?
