nah thermostat wont cause that. Give us the type of car and maybe we can help more, but to give you some of the possible causes in order of most likely to least likely:</P>


Dirty or bad IAT / IAC / ISCM (depends on what type of car)</P>


Bad or off TPS</P>


Bad or dirty EGR valve</P>


Vacuum leak</P>
