I have a 1995 Ford Explorer.
It idles rough but not all the time. Mostly in the winter months when temps drop below 20 degrees.
It has never stalled.
If it seems like it might stall, the idle will jump up and then it MAY go back to a rough idle.
Any ideas will help. Thanks.

Clean out the idle air control valve and test the throttle position sensor
