Check the fuel pressure if okay -check and test the idle air control valve, throttle position sensor and airflow meter.

EFI system don't like low fuel pressure-You need a fuel pressure gauge to determine it report back with the readings so that we can continue to assist.

Or you can try cleaning out the idle air control valve and see what happens
