sometimes when i turn my car on the idle just goes reallllly low and then just stalls. if i give it some gas it doesnt stall but if i dont it stalls. after driving like 15 ft to like a stop sign its fine .

other tiems when i start it. the idle is almost at 2500rpm/


this just started happening all the sudden. wahts up with my car?
 
happened to my friend's eclipse after we reconnected the battery after a car show... it would idle at like 300rpms for a while and get close to stalling, but a little tap on the pedal and it kept it from stalling. its usually a sign of the car trying to relearn the fuel maps after loosing them from memory.
