I think I'd check for a loose, cracked or missing vacuum hose somewhere
under the hood.

Oil pressure is low or thereis a defective oil pressure switch. You need to pot a pressure gauge on it when it is hot.

1998 Pontiac sunfire idol ruff but smooths out when take off and smell fuel?
This is probably due to a dirty or malfunctioning Idle Air Control (IAC) motor. This device calibrates the air in idling, and stop interacting once you accelerate. It is located in the throttle body. Sometimes, just removing it and deep cleaning it will do

My 2003 Toyota Camry stopped idling after I changed the battery?
did you use a memory saver? I know you did not so the vehicle has to go through a relearn process, every time you start and drive the car it will learn something and it will get back to normal After I replaced battery for my 2003 Camry last night with 12V disconnected from car for 5 min. After new battery was installed, the idling was very low and rough at approx 300 rpm (normally approx 700rpm). Car was running on the road for 15min last night and this morning. It was still having the same problem. I referred to other answer of similar case for 2005 Subaru. From cold off, turn to ON position and wait for 15sec. Then start the engine. Let engine idle for 5 minutes without loading at Parking gear. Then, run on the road for 10 minutes. It is now smooth and back to normal idling approx 700rpm, probably after computer relearn.
