I'll place bets on you have a vacuum leak. I have an '87 TII which I got back on the road after a long time-out on the driveway.
It wouldn't idle for ****. I took the top end apart and replaced *all* the rubber - vacuum, water and fuel.
Idle was then 1500rpm instead of 2500. Much diags later, I found another air leak between the AFM and the turbo inlet. Sealed that up and idle is rock solid at 850.

Before you try *anything* else, replace all the hoses, and fix any tears in the big ducts between the AFM and the motor.

I'll lay the first-born on tha fixing it.
