Did you check you CEL and forget to return the screw to the proper place?? I did that to my car a couple of times.

look in the FAQ how-to's=clean ur IACV valve, maybe even ur throttle body if ur down for that too, might as well-it'll take all of an extra 30 mins. this should solve ur prob...mine did it too...
