Car starts but won't idle. I have to keep pumping the accelerator to keep it going
Typical problem?

Is your check engine light on? Look for trouble codes. Also:
*Check your fuel pressure
*check/clean your IAC valves and motor
*check EGR valve,
*check PCV valve
*check/clean MAF sensor.
*check TPS sensor
