I'm going to guess it's the throttle body position switch.  I've been
fighting mine for a couple weeks.  If it is adjusted too far one way it
will not idle when cold.  When it is too far the other way, it dies
when you barely press the accelerator pedal.  Does anyone have any hints
for adjusting it properly?  I followed the Bentley, but It's just not
staying there.  I think the cam may be worn becasue it is very touchy to
adjust.  I assume the cam is replaceable without having to buy the
entire switch assembly.

Hi guys,

My car won't idle when cold, almost at all.  But if I press the gas and

keep it running about 2000 rpm for about a half minute, it will idle.

And as it gets warmer, it idles a little higher, but not higher than =
