"...keep giving it gas.  It won't idle without dying."
(snip)
If you mean "'operating the throttle" by your statement "giving
it gas", in effect you are either 1) increasing the amount of air
to mix with the extra fuel you are getting at idle; or 2)
allowing increased fuel flow if you are starving it at idle.
Check the condition of the injectors for the flow rate.
