when you start it, it will only start if you give it throttle?
that suggests to me its a fuel problem

now the lambda sensor and coolent temp sensor both take part in controlling the fueling
then there is the idle control valve and the throttle potentionmeter and possiblt the crankshaft and camshaft sensors
