Clean or replace ( IAC ) Idle Air Control valve or mass air flow sensor and clean throttle body.

Ok. Have the ( Toque Converter Clutch Soilnold) checked. Google that and it will give you the symptoms of what happens to your vehicle when this part goes bad. Sounds just like what your vehicle is doing.

Sorry have nothing else for you at this time but I will continue to investigate the problem.

Is your Throttle Position Switch adjustable ? Sounds like it is idling to low. And also check vacuum lines making sure none of them are off or bad.
