Depends on your engine type. For TPI I would check our your MAF sensor first. For TBI or carb start with fuel pressure.

I would also check fr some vacuum leaks. When i had one my car would not idle good at all. If you check for leaks and think you might have one spotted, get a can of carb cleaner and spray it in that area. If the car revs slighly when u spray then you have found a vacuum leak
good luck

Is it the guage that is bouncing a lot or is I the engine revig a lot.
If the tach needle is bouncing (you also notice slight surging), then you have some plugs and wires fried.
I don't know it the needle is your problem or not, but I was on mine and 75 dollars and two cut up forarms later it was a new car.
