Will it stay running if you are pushing on the gas pedal?

make sure you got all your vacume leaks in the correct place. also check to see if your throtle body is leaking around that gasket. the only thing is sounds like is a vacume leak,just check everything very close. mabe you have a hole in one of your vacume lines also
