A few weeks ago I hooked up my coolant lines to the throttle body because they weren't hooked up when i got the car and I'm just trying to get this figured out before winter comes again

First off I have read the vfaq and another post on here about setting it but it won't work for me. I'll have the car fully warmed up and hooked up the alligator clips to the pin on the diagnostic port and under the hood and grounded THEN start the car and adjust it to 750-800 let it idle then turn the car off unplug them turn the car back on an it drops to 500-600 and stays there.

Now if I pull the negative off of the battery and let it sit and hook it back up later and start the car with it cold it will idle high and slower lower as it warms up(like its supposed to) but the car only does that once
