Check your throttle position sensor and your IAC. One or both of those is most likely your culprit.

It may not be..

Did it do this before you did the IM swap?

If not then it has something to do with the install/swap

Spray water around the IM gasket and see if it bubbles, if it does then you have a vac leak.

goodluck and let us know y0!
