Default Turbo 96 Idle Problem

I have a 96 turbo hx.....The car runs fine, only sometimes when i turn the car on it will shut off if i dont give it gas right away. Also sometimes at idle it will rev up and down by itself, usually up to about 1500 RPM.....Is this a problem, or normal?If it is how can i fix it??

Sounds to me like your cold idle thermo valve may be having trouble. Try cleaning that out and see if your symptoms go away.
