My car starts fine, but does not stay on idle and shuts off. I pressed on accelerator and keep it on, warmed it up to normal temp, but same thing happened...........you take your foot off the accelerator and it shuts down. I put fuel injection cleaner in the tank and kept it running........same.

Any ideas?
