...probably our most common inquiry:

1) Fuse on top the OVP or the OVP itself
2) Dirty or dead idle control valve
3) dying or dead idle control unit

Above in order of expense to replace. Do a search in the forums for in depth info on location and procedures for your model.

here's hoping its the 10 amp fuse on the OVP
