Default Dies while driving when cold

yesterday when i went to leave in the morning it was colder (higher 40's) it started right up, I started to drive then it died, i made it a block from my house, so i restarted it and headed back home but it died out a couple more times, when i got home from work to take a look at it, it started right up and ran fine all night, this morning when i went to leave it was a little colder and it did the same thing, anyone have any ideas

Someone else posted a similar problem, I believe most respondants said to set the base idle and clean the IACV and the FITV, others said possibly the main relay?

did you let it warm up at all before driving? if not, it's hard to tell what the problem truely is
let it idle for 2-3 minutes
once it is warmed up, the idle will drop, but it should still run

no i would just start it and drive away when it would act up, but it has not been cold enough latly to act up again, i will pull the iac off and clean it out and what were the other two parts you guys were talking about?
