Idle problem
Okay, so I know this may have been gone over before, but when you search you just find topics saying to search, so it's kind of pointless.
Alright, I go out in the morning, start my car, let it warm up, I drive it.
I park somewhere, say Fred Meyer, or Safeway, go in - shop for 10-20 minutes, come back outside. My car is still semi-warmed up, and when I turn it on, the RPM's shoot up like normal, but when it goes back down - it goes so far that it dies, with it out of gear, and even if the clutch is engaged.
I rev it up until the engine gets back to full warmth, and then it won't die on me.
What might be the cause of this?

A while back when I replaced a few fuel and coolant lines, I forgot to connect the 'air intake temp sensor' or so I was told, and my car did sort of the same thing. I forget if it happend when it was dead cold or warmed up... Check around the hood for something that could have came off like any electrical connectors or a vaccum hose.
