start by adjusting your valves....a very far out valve adjustment will cause rough idling. after that, then pull your iacv and fitv ( if equipped ) and clean them. if you have a fitv remove the cover and screw the white plastic peice all the way down. if neither of those fix your problem then start searching for vacuum leaks.
