Default Need Help crazy idle

I have a 96 cobra that is haveing some troubles.

Sometimes it idles at 1005rpms then back to 1000rpms and thats when I push in the clutch when I am come to a stop, but it wants to rev up and down till I come to that stop. If that makes any since to anyone.

Today it was totally different.....2000rpms down to 1000rpms and it would stay there for a few. Then the Idle would drop almost killing the engine, and then it would rev back up to a 1000rpms.

Does anyone think they could help me???

Also I changed out the TPS, ICV, VS I hope those are the right Abrevs....

Also I was thinking about resetting my computer, does anyone know how to do that???
