A few different thing's could cause that , IAC - idle air control valve , vacuum leak , engine electronics , (sensor's) Would need to do testing to say for sure ! Know how to do basic engine testing ? Your best bet would be to take it to a qualified repair shop that has the diagnostic tools to find an fix this problem ! Wouldn't trust part's store's , they just want to sell you parts !

Try this, disconnect IAC, and start. if starts and stays even do not purchase new IAC because the real problem could be a faulty program in the brain that controls the IAC. you can manually set IAC and drive like this ok, but continue to search out true cause. I left mine like this til traded the car few years later. the brain was $$$$$ and did not want to spend.

2001 monte carlo hesitates on acceleration

The most likely cause could be the MAP Sensor or if it has a MAF Sensor. The sensors are used by the computer to determine how much air is coming into the engine, and if they malfunction then when you step on the gas pedal and more air flows into the engine, the computer has difficulty trying to add the proper amount of fuel. Scan the computer for codes. If you don't have a scanner you can take your vehicle by one of the national discount auto parts stores and they will scan you computer for you, usually for free.
