while sitting at idle RPM race from 1200 to 3000 and back down. It does the same thing with cruise control on.

Hi:
It could be caused by a throttle position sensor or idle air control valve. What you need to do is have the computer scanned for trouble codes. Most nationally recognized parts stores will do it for free.

Let me know what you find.
