Angry Engine tick & "Jumpy" Idle

I have a '92 GrandAM SE 3.3 V6. When the car is idle there is a ticking sound that can be heard in the engine that goes synchronously with the engine's rpm speed. What could be causing this? Also, the idle speed is very jumpy, it'll jump from around 1,200 rpm to 800rpm sometimes so low that it sounds like it's going to stall and then it jumps all the way up to around 1,200 rpm. If anyone has any advice at all on how to fix these problems it would be greatly appreciated, thanks :-)!
