was the part no exactly the same on the stepper motor you replaced as there is about 3 differant variants . the differance is in the shape of the plunger where it sits in the throttle body,if you have a differant part no then it wont work or seat correctly and your idle speed will be all up and down . your easiest option would be to replace the whole throttle body for a complete second hand one ,alsowhen you fitted it did you reset the plunger before you installed it ,that will also give you the same symptoms
