The car will not hold idle after it has been driven a bit and warmed up when we try to restart it. It starts right up, but then dies. I must give it gas in an attempt to keep it running. Strangly it does not do it all the time, but it is getting more often. Help

Hi wareman,

Seems the idle control circuit is intermittently faulty. If the idling speed is low after warming up when starting from cold, I would suggest cleaning the throttle body and Idle Air Control valve.
