Check your TPS. Its probably the culprit, either dead or out of adjustment.

Yes the TPS will cause what you described in your first post, as well as the jumpy/crappy idle. When the car is warming up, does the rpm's bounce up and down? I'd try adjusting it first, then replacing it secondly. I had to replace mine...
