Welcome to 2CarPros.

Often times, an engine vacuum leak will cause these symptoms. If there is a leak, the most difficult part of the repair is locating it. Once located, simply replace the hose or reconnect it.

Here is a link that explains how to find engine vacuum leaks. Do this and let me know if it helps.

Let me know the results.
