Likely culprits:

EGR valve, usually a simple replacement.
MAP sensor, usually a simple replacement.
Idle air valve, usually a simple replacement
TPS sensor, usually a simple replacement.
Plugs, wires, cap and rotor, usually a simple replacement.

Start all repairs by conducting a complete inspection of all vacuum hoses, EGR hoses and fittings, electrical connections, etc. Anything that looks bad or worn probably is. Fix those things first.

Most likely, if the car runs well under power, just won't idle, is the EGR valve, then the MAP sensor. After that comes the idle air valve, TPS sensor, then Plugs and Wires.

Other things can cause this, such as the distributor, camshaft position sensor, crankshaft position sensor, O-2 sensors, etc., but the previous list is likely where you'll find the problem.

If it has been a while since a plug and wire change, you may consider moving that up a bit in your list, as they are routine maintainence anyway.
