Hey my car is idling high when it starts and staying that why til I put it in gear. Then it cuts out after I take my foot of the gas peddle. I've been told it was bad gas(water in the gas tank) I put in it HEET and let it run for two hours running out most of the gas but it still does the same thing. What should I do?

Hi:
Water won't cause that problem. It sounds like you have a bad throttle position sensor. Have the computer scanned at a nationally recognized parts store. Most will do it for free, and it will help find the problem. I assure you it isn't water.
