I used to have a similar problem concering droppy RPM's. My car would start up cold fine. Then once restarted when the engine was warm the rpm's would go to 1k then drop to 0 and die. I had to rev the engine a bit right after i turned the ignition to keep the car from dying. So i found a thread stating to clean the TB for these symptoms which i did. It corrected the problem for the most part. But ever since i had that problem it feels like i've lost alot of low end power in first gear. The car just feels really week at 2000rpm's and below. After 2000rpms the power feels normal though. What do you guys suggest as far as needing to be replaced to get that low end torque back to normal?

im not so sure that its a valid complaint, but depending on what you used to clean the TB, you may have removed some carbon buildup from the combustion chamber, which can lower compression.
