Default Eratic idle and stalling

Not sure if I'm in the right place but here goes. My car idled fine before my cam install and tune then once I did the cam and had it tuned the idle was all f'ed up it surges up and down at idle between 800-1500 rpms some times stalls but will catch itself some times. On a cold start it will idle fine but on a hot start it doesn't wanna stay running at all. Going back to the tuner is not an option wondering if maybe I have a bad sensor or other that I may have to look into this has been going on for a year changed th maf 3 times. Anyone got a clue?

No bad sensor, just not tuned properly to get the car to idle correctly. When you had it tuned after the cam, did the tuner do a complete tune or a dyno tune?

Well tuner had it for a weeks or two and it was supose to be a full tune but with this douche who knows.

I wouldn't go back to that dick if he was the only tuner

Thanks guys didn't think is was going to be a sensor just figured I'd give it a shot
