I think the check valve is going bad because I have a stiff pedal in the mornings and when trying to start the car after it has been sitting for a while.
That would cause a low idle for sure. If I were you, I'd just buy the new checkvalve and replace it first. There is also a small possibility the brake booster itself failed, but you would notice that all the time, not just on starting.
