Question type: Maintenance & Repair

So, i got a 86 Ford Bronco 5.0 EFI. Auto. It will not
Idle when i first start it. Dosent matter if it 90
degrees out side and the moters warm or its 25

Unless you put it in gear. (Warmed up or cold) then
it idles fine. Thow it in N or Park. Dies wont idle.
Sometimes, rarely. If you drive it around for awhile.
Come to a stop and put it in park it will idle. But the
second you shut it off and start it back up. Wont

Fuel is good, hasn't been sitting long its been a daily driver for the guy before me. But this started doing it on him so he sold it. To me. I already went though the basics ...spark plugs, wires, cap and roter. There all new. Havnt cleaned the TBi or the IAC. I might of thought it might be a EGR valve also?

Ok, i didnt think it would be a IAC because you can pull one of those out while the car is running and it will still stay running. Im gunna need another person to help me if im going to check it while its running. And keep there foot on the gas so it dosnt die. And i dont have a code reader
