Reset your ecu, could be your IACV, or you may just need to adjust your idle.

I'm having the same type of problem on my EJ8. IACV stands for Idle Air Control Valve? Where is this located? Could it also be that a bad TPS throws a code for a bad MAP?

Ok, I located and cleaned out my IACV. Lets see if this idle problem continues...
