Sounds like a bad mass air sensor
my swift used to do it all the time every time the bat died it did it for 10 min or soo then it self corected
check the codes they will usualy tell you the problem
Take one of the battery posts off for half an hour then put it back on, that will reset the system and hopefully fix the problem, that's what I did
By disconnecting the battery you cleared the cars computer. you should be able to start it keep the idle up for a couple of minutes so the computer can learn where it needs to be.
To correct this problem get a can of throttle valve cleaner (it is made by CRC) from the local auto parts store, spray it into the air intake of the engine until you have used about half the can, you will need to hold the idle up while you do this, it will try to stall, after this shut the engine down and disconnect the Negative (-) battery cable for 5 minutes. The intake is now clean, if you continue to have the idle speeds problems you may need to seek the help of a professional.
