Default weird, starts then shuts off

i had some crazy ideling problems. i followed the thread below and it was my FITV it was lose so i thighten it and my problem is fixed, car is idling perfect.

http://www.g2ic.com/forums/sho...=Idle

my new problem now is when i start the car when its cold, it starts and it jumps to 1000rpm and it shuts down. its like no air is going in. i tried cleaning my IAC and samething.

the only way to keep running is when i start it , i have to rev it to 2000 rpm for like 10 seconds, then if i take my foot off the gas it drops to 1000rpm and it sits there to warmup.

if at anytime i try to start it after it will start and jump to 1000rpm, it seems that it only does that when it sits for a period of time 6 to 8 hours.

can anyone tell me what i can be. is it the IAC?

All help is greatly appreciated,

my car did that , then i fixed the probelm by tightening the valve. idle is perfect.

just at cold starts it will start, sit at 1000rpm for like a second then die, feels like no air coming in. but if i start it and rev it to 2000rpm for 5 seconds, then remove from the pedal it will go down to 1100rpm and sit there to warm up.

just starting is the issue.
