Default RE: wont idle

Sounds like you may have a bad IAC valve(idle air control). It meters a certain amount of air around the throttle plate to adjust idle speed and adjusts for various loads on the engine. When they go bad, they'll usually be stuck in the closed position starving the engine of air.
