The vehicle sounds like it is going to stall when idle. It also will not stay idle when starting. I need to give it gas and then drive with both the brake and gas pedal just for thirty seconds then it will stay idle, but feels like it will stall. I have cleaned the throttle body and the IAC. A lot of gunk came out but it did not cure it. Can you suggest something. Thank you.
