check your timing. but, also check the coil. try replacing the coil with a known good one. see how that does.

Wouldn't hurt either to do a full tune up either, also replace the plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, air filter and clean the throttle body.

Test your MAP sensor voltage to check for vacuum leaks. The idle went up went the CEL came on because the ECU went into open-loop mode.
