Default What is Wrong with MY car? wont keep idle is dies??!?!?!

Ok guys, well i just got my AN-R intake manifold, and slapped my GSR TB back on the car, and started up idled fine. I put my hand over the intake to check for vaccum leaks and sure enough it died, so no vaccum leaks.

When i am driving the car, it idles at liek 200-300 rpms, and dies alot when i am not on the gas...

Could someone help me with this please! i need to figure it out this week before i go get my car tunned

For what it's worth, I had a problem with my idle dropping out and the car stopping. It turned out to be my primary o2 sensor. My car was a stock 98 civic dx. Hope that helps, good luck.
