Check the idle air control and EGR valve to include the throttle position sensor-

Check for vacuum leaks. A large leak will do this

My car has been doing the same thing, a friend told me to check the egr valve, we have already changed the plugs, and the gas mileage went from good to really bad.. It only has 70 orig miles on it.. How do you check to see if this valve is bad?
