Need to know the specs of your engine. Got to find out the code your getting. Check this topic http://www.stratusphere.us/forums/index.php?showtopic=124 and let me know whats going on.

You may need to clean your throttlebody and Idle Air controller. You're putting more load on motor and the IAC doesn't seem to be compensating enough.
Run a keydance on the car if it is before 98 and get the exact code number. The code is probably for multiple cylinder misfire. This could be a number of things like wires, plugs, distributor cap, rotor, crank sensor, o2 sensors, EGR Valve.
