it can be several things, I would start out with a thorough throttle body cleaning, then check the iac. (idle air control valve). make sure you have a clean air filter and gas filter. you might want to do a fuel pressure check , just to rule out fuel components. and if you havent already, be sure to do some plugs and wires.
