Boris,
Blunt and to the point:
You said the vehicle has done this for 3 years.  Why suddenly it's a 
serious issue?
You haven't said how many RPM's the idle hunts up and down, you haven't 
provided *ANY* scan tool data IE: block learn/integrator (Fuel learning) 
values, recomendations have been made and you change the subject in the 
next message and skip over the suggestion.
Troubleshooting *MUST* be done in an orderly manner if it's to turn up any 
problems.
There is a wealth of info on this list and people that are willing to bend 
over backwards to help other list members out, but you have to be willing 
to take that advice and apply it or you'll get no where.
The first step you need to take is to buy a service manual so you can check 
the basics, Plugs, Wires, PCV valve etc.  the ECM/sensors should be the 
last thing checked after all the normal mechanical/vacuum related items.
