1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport was charged with battery connected. No will only start with accelerator slightly depressed. runs fine with pedal depressed but instantly shuts off when pedal is released...no sputter just instant shut-off. Trying to figure out what may have been shorted by charging...

It probably needs an idle relearn. The idle air control motor might be affected
