Default Idles high when cold, dies when warm
Anyone had this problem? It's a 97 Ram 1500 V-8. It idles really high when its cold, but it dies when it is idling warm. Idle air control maybe? Any ideas? If you keep one foot on the brakes and one on the gas you can keep it running when idleing warm.

Default throttle body?
occassionally have a similar issue with my v10... goes away with good throttle body cleaning. Choke eliminates problem when engine is cold.
