Need help, 92 3.1 V6 5 speed

My car is havin problems. Got the car on a trade, got the tranny rebuilt and new clutch put in.
the car wont pass emissons.. the HC is reading 374 and the limit is 220.
This car sometimes idles fine when I start it, other times it starts up and is idleing really high like if my foot was on the gas.
When I go down a hill cruising in 3rd gear.. the car will backfire (popping noise) REALLY EMBARRASSING. Sometimes when pulling from a red light, the car hesitates real bad and the more gas I give it, the faster it goes back to normal... sometimes when coming to a stop the car will act like it wants to keep driving, even as im downshifting.. an when i come to a stop it idles high. (sometimes it just drives fine without any of these problem)
I really need some help before this car drives me crazy.. thanks.

btw.. i have also put new plugs an plug wires in the car and it still acts the same.
