it is difficult to replace but not impossible. there are threads here to help you on how to do it. I suggest a brand new unit instead of trying to band aid it with exhaust tape or worse.

as for the idle, there are many causes. how many miles are on your car? when was the last time the MAF sensor on the intake was cleaned? when was the spark plug replaced?
