When I start my car it wont idle unless I keep my foot on the accelerator it drives as long as when I come to a stop I keep my foot on the accelerator to keep it running as soon as I take my foot of the gas it dies

IF YOU NEED TO HOLD YOUR FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR -- COULD ALMOST GUARANTEE YOU NEED A NEW MAP SENSOR. PASSENGER SIDE FIREWALL BOLTS TO COWL. NAPA PART # 2-19002 ABOUT $110 OR 3-19002 ABOUT $40.
