every time i turn my car, the car starts then it shut down and the only way from me to keep it on its if i press the gas pedal and hold it for a couple of seconds then the car will stay on. ive been messing around with the lil screw on the throttle body when the car is warm and i adjust the rev the way they are supposed to be and even though i adjusted correctly, every morning the car does the same thing. ive talked to my mechanic about it and he said it might be the idle control valve, what do you guys think?

like 95

EDIT: Why dont you ask around here. There are bunch of people doing the Diamante Throttle body swap and it has different IAC. So the guys usually have the stock one sitting around. Id ask Ivory8g, or SPD FRK or Beam514 or some like that. Im sure they cut u a deal
