went outside this morning and when i started my car up it ran like normal for about 10 seconds and then the tach would drop to about .5 rpm and the engine would shake a little and it would stall and while this was happening there would a whining noise and some puttering coming from my throttle body and intake manifold. car runs fine its just if i leave it in neutral or have the clutch in for too long the car will just stall out. Do i need a new throttle body or intake manifold:confused: any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
n/m found out the problem my idle screw fell out somewhere, cant find it. Now i have a new question, anyone know where i can get another one??
