Default runing trouble with my wrx

Got an issue with MY93 Wrx,
been stood for 6 months whilst having some bits sorted,
had it runing ok on saturday was idleing fine, reved up great moved it around all ok,
then today it wouldnt start up greatly sounded lumpy lots of pops, then it started but only idleing with me holding the throttle then that cleared, was idleing for 10mins all normal then was unsetled idle but again cleared and i went to move it but now as soon as you hold the throttle in any postion its hunting between 1.2-2k and thats all it does idles ok but hunting any ideas?
no engine managment light, and engine was upto temp also
regards benji
