Try changing out your ECT or Engine Coolant Temp sensor. Inexpensive part and easy to change. If that doesn't fix it, my next part would be the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS). If the check engine light is on, I would have the error codes scanned. Try your nearest Autozone. Post back with results...thanks.
