I would try to clean out your idle stabilizer valve (on the top of the motor in the center) with some mineral spirits (brake cleaner). If that doesn't fix it then it is probably your idle stabilizer (behind passenger side tail light on 86 and newer vans). Best way to check this is to swap in a known good unit. I have both the idle stabilizer and the idle air valve on my web site if you need them.
