Default high idle\ wont drive in gear

ok i have searched and found a few things but not everything. ok my car is idleing at 1500 when i start it up then it goes down to 1100 or so. i am guessing that it is a bad gasket on the throttle body because when i sprayed some wd40 on there it dropped some. but when i reversed it out of the driveway it was fine but when i put it in first gear and tried to pull it forward it seemed like it didnt want to go and then died all of a sudden. i have to floor it to get it to move and the rpms go up but when i pull it forward the tach doesnt move at all. i am not sure what is going on and need help badly. thanks in advanced

WD40???? But the high idle is just cause it has to warm up once it goes to normal operating temp it goes down, does about the same thing wiht my gsr motor.
Just my 2 cents

What if it doesn't go down and you have to reset the ECU to get a normal idle????
