Please help as soon as you let off gas engine dies. The engine runs fine at any rpm other than idle.

...It will help you to get more answers if you include your yr/mk/model of the vehicle along with what engine it has...;)
 






I vote IAC, especially if its a 2nd gen.
 






i second iac (idle air control) valve. my brothers truck did that and the iac fixed it. besides when you think about it, its function is to allow a controlled amount of air into the engine in order to control the idle.
 






what they said try and clean the iac, my car was doing the same thing
 












I'm gonna throw in clean the MAF as well as the IAC.
 






yep, clean both - but keep in minde that it is possible your IAC is too far gone and cleaning won't fully fix it.
 






i vote vacuum leak
