I need help. My Stratus wouldn't start. It wouldn't even turn over. I bought a new battery and now it starts but as soon as I let my foot off the gas it stalls. I saw that someone else in the forum had the same issue but no response. I replaced the TPS but that didn't work. I had the mechanics hook up a computer but no results. Whats next? Help!

I cleaned my throttle body and it works fine. If you have this problem buy throttle body cleaner. Open up the blade get a toothbrush and scrub it clean. Make sure the cleaner is safe for O2 sensors. I opened it up and sprayed scrubed,sprayed scrubed. I used half the can.
