00 GT stalling in neutral

[align=left]I have a 2000 GT manual transmission, and lately its been acting up, every time I start the car with the transmission in neutral if i dont give it some gas it just dies, even when im driving along in between shifts the car just wants to die, I have to constantly give it a little juice to keep it alive in between gears. In gear moving along its like nothing is wrong though.... Anyone else have this problem or have any pointers on how to get it fixed?

RE: 00 GT stalling in neutral

I bought a can of throttle cleaner and cleaned out the throttle body and thew some seafoam into the gastank, started a little rough lots of smoke but it runs smooth and it doesnt stall anymore, I guess it just needed a good cleaning thanks again for the help guys
