Sounds like a GM car with a bad torque converter clutch solenoid. If so the cure may be easy, may be a little difficult
Did I guess the car correctly???

Could be a bad or misadjusted throttle position sensor, or idle air control valve.
It COULD be almost anything. That's a very common symptom. If it's a newer car, I'd have the ECU checked for any error codes.

BINGO- See my earlier post. Unplug the thing to test it. If it drives normal then leave it unplugged. Good Luck.
