Jumping Idle on 91 P/A

i have just recently bought a 1991 Park Avenue. It has about 130000 miles on it. it runs great, but whenever i start it after driving it for a little bit, the idle will jump quickly up and down from about 800rpms to 1100rpms. What could be causing this, and what can i do to fix it?? Any help is greatly appreciated! thanks

Usual suspects:

Plugs and wires
Fuel filter

Less likely:
Coil pack
Injectors
Fuel pump/sending unit

How about carbon in the throttle body or Idle Air Control Valve?
