My 1999 Saturn was doing the same thing. I replaced the temp sensor and put new plugs and wires on it and it still idled rough. I removed and cleaned the EGR valve and that did the trick. So try replacing or cleang the EGR valve and you should be good.

Now if I could only figure out why it revs high when I start it or put it in park after driving it an I would be all set
