Default i cant depend on my stang...

When i go start up the car in the morning it starts up just fine. leave it on for about 2 minutes then turn it off i wait about 5 secs and try to turn it on it sparks but if i dont give it a little throttle make a sound like TTZZZ (lol I kno) and wont start up until i open up the throttle. problem number 2 after a cold start it will have rough idle for about 2 minutes and the check engine light comes on. as soon as the check engine light goes away the idle runs smooth again.???
i would like to know what the problem is before i take it to a shop thats gonna change parts thats not nessarry for extra bucks ... anyone had the same problem or similar?
thanks
