Weird at start up.

This happens everyday, or whenever i let the car sit for a long period of time (one day or so, but not if i constantly drive it), the car wants to die unless i give it a lil gas for about 3 seconds then everything is peachy keen. Well the car drives fine, besides the high idle which i've attempted to get fixed by the rotary shop but they said they checked everything out and no leaks or anything. They suspect it could be my TID, they said it looks as if it is "pieced" together, i'm curious if any other members have had this similar problem?

I had the problem of "high idle" when I first got my 7. Turned out that the previous owner had put a thermostat in that was 20 degrees to cold. I put in a new thermostat and she warms up quickly and the idle comes down to 750 RPM perfect.
Oh yea, my gas milage was WAY bad until I changed the stat.

Just something to check!

How much would that run? Could a rotary shop miss something like that?
