THE CAR STARTS BUT WILL NOT STAY RUNNING. IT WONT IDLE AT ALL. I CAN KEEP IT RUNNING IF I KEEP MY FOOT ON THE PEDAL.
SOURCE: stalls at idle
I had the same issue with the same car....turned out to be my Idle Air Control Valve. The mechanic cleaned it out and so far my car runs fine. Actually, a little better than before. It wound up costing me $88.00 for the mechanic and $45.00 for the tow. Hope this helps you out.
Oh by the way, it would've cost me $475.00 to get the part replaced...

Cycle key to on, not start, and see if you hear fuel pump "humming". What engine, and is this vehicle carburetor or fuel injected?

its under your dash, usally it says dash/dome lights or radio
SOURCE: running rough, wont idle, bad gas smell
Possible injector failure. locate by disconnecting injectors one at a time. The one that makes no change is the questionable. Status of spark plugs need chkg also. pull the plugs an the one that looks washed is questionable good luck

It might just need cleaning. Spray some PB Blaster around the throttle arm where the cable connects to at the base of the carb, and see if that frees up the flaps. And while spraying, fiddle with the throttle linkage.
