Either your IAC (idle air control) sensor, or you just need to raise up your idle with the BISS (base idle set screw). I would try the biss first. It should be on top of the throttle body. I think that should do it

You can get a used one for about sixty bucks though, with a one year parts protection. Thats what I did when mine went bad and it has been fine for awhile.

Nope not at all. If it does not work then no harm done.

Just make sure its clean along with where it goes in, and make sure the o-ring that goes around it is in good shape, and you should be fine.
