I have a problem with my car starting and idling. When i start my car it immediatly turns off, its take 2-3 times to start the car and have it stay running. once its running it idles rough for a while until the engine gets warm. I replaced the TPS and set it to the right voltage. Could my idle air bypass valve solenoid be messed up?

The exact same thing happened on the cobra. Kevin reset the computer and cleaned the plugs going into the air intake portion. That fixed everything. Have you disconnected the battery and tried that stuff?
