My idle problems were caused by a dirty IACV and a flat out broken FITV. You can check those out and see if after a good cleaning it helps. They are also pretty easy to take out on my del sol so it wasn't much of a hassle.

Test your TPS, fix your idle speed and fluctuation (it shouldn't be that high, and it shouldn't fluctuate), and after you're done with that, check your timing.

Get your tps sensor adjusted and clean your IACV hopefully your car will be ok
