   Clean your idle control valve the engine is struggling for air when the butterfly is shut so your idle control valve is stuck shut.

   Bedfords reply is a lot more likely, try that before anything else.

   sounds like the engine is struggling to breathe, some shit stuck in there.

    might be a blocked exhaust.
    
    edit, seen the vid, certainly as if the icv is not working properly.
