Mostly it was having problems starting and wouldn't hold an idle at all unless you held the throttle open at about 2000 for several minutes after which it might stall and you had to go through the process again, or might flutter at barely 500 but did manage to stay going, got better as it warmed up.
Though it hasn't stalled nor do I need to touch the throttle to get it to start since TPS, plugs, and battery were replaced. It still Idles around 500-600 cold, and I'm a bit worried that I only put a bandaid on the real issue and want to make sure to cover all bases and get the real problem so it doesn't become reccurring.
Previous to this problem it would Idle at 800 cold and down to 600 warm.

It could be worn a lil but should be ok. The throttle is set by the Throttle Body Plate so it should be factory set like rebel is talking about. I wouldn't mess with it.
Clean the TB and install a IAC then tune the TPS for great performance: Do It Yourself (top questions and answers) FAQ's

ROTFLMAO!
Dude (laughin some more) I was talking about her handle and that she is a member regardless. We need some girls around here that aren't afraid to turn a wrench or get dirty especially being pregnant with 1 month to go. Not to mention an Amy mom with 3 lil ones and juggling all that? All I was saying is I'm a metal head and prefer that kinda vocabulary and stating that I liked her name.
But I did like the M&M dude humpin the leg.......That’s funny!

Well, the idle is sitting at about 700 be she cold or warm, doing better on milage as well. I'm hoping that this little issue is licked.
I need my baby she's all I got to haul around my heathen hoard.
now I just gotta get some decent tires and fix a fog light mount and she'll be bout like new again.
