I'm not familiar with your particular model, but here are a few things that might help. It might just need a tune-up. If the vehicle hasn't received a proper tune-up or service, go buy it a set of sparkplugs and plug wires, a new air filter, a new fuel filter, oil and oil filter, and maybe an upstream oxygen sensor. It may not fix it, but the increase in gas mileage will pay for itself in 5 or 6 months depending on how nicely you drive your vehicle. Other things to look at would be the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve, the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve, the manifold Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, the Throttle Positioning Sensor (TPS), the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve, or it could even be just a simple vaccuum leak. I always encourage vehicle up-keep. Tune-ups almost always pay for themselves in a short time because of the better gas mileage, increased power (both are very noticable) and overall driver satisfaction (priceless) which is... like I said, PRICELESS! That and it makes your car a little more ozone friendly.
