could be the ICV, take it off, take it apart and give it a good clean.. if the problem is still there, id check for vacuum leaks

Check the throttle plate is closing, it may be stiff or clogged up with shit. Remove the intake pipe at the throttle body and give it a good spray with some brake cleaner and wipe it out.

as far as i know, the TPS on the automatic throttle body is different to the manual one so the connector wouldnt fit so maybe theres a manual one on there already for it to fit the loom?
