1993 Chevy Lumina 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

my 93 chevy lumina will not idle, when I crank it over I have to give it some gas and if I let off the throttle it dies. It runs fine when its on the highway. Any suggestions?

Inspect and test the idle air control valve and throttle position sensor-if it continues check the EGR and PCV valves-

Idle air control valve and throttle position sensor did fix the problem. You guys are great.
