99 dx idle issue

Iv got a 99 dx with 179,000 miles. When I first bought it, it would idle up and down after coming up to temp. It had been sitting awhile before I got it so I assumed IACV and cleaned that an the TB. now it just idles wicked low and itl shut off until the temp gauge starts moving. When I first start it I have to give it gas to keep it running and hold the throttle so that its idling at a normal rpm. From time to time when I'm letting off the gas it will reach a point where the throttle lets off completely and kind of jolts the car. The fix for this is to shut the car off and turn it on again.

Possible fuel issue. Do a search for "main relay" and give that a whirl. Good luck!
