It may be as simple as a bad fuel filter. if the filter is plugged, you may get enough of fuel to idle car, But when giving it gas. there is not enough fuel reaching engine, to keep it running. Its worth a try! God-Bless!

the alarm is activating when he locks it and for some reason the key or fob isnt deactivating it..check the disarm switches in the door
SOURCE: Idle fluctuates
Its could be a few things. Most likely cause is you IAC (Idle air control valve) If this valve gets clogged up with carbon it will cause a idle surge on cold starts like you are describing.
Next your FITV (fast idle thermal valve). When the hot wax inside of this valve starts to wear it will cause a idle surge on cold starts.

have the fuel pump checked , its sounds like a bad pump. you can check press at fuel rail with a gauge or find a shop with a scope they can check the pattern, and they can check volume as well. you can have presss but no volume. and if you are checking your self and want the easy way spray some starting fluid down the throttle body and see if it stays running while being sprayed remember keep the mass air hooked up , so spray and hook intake plastic tube back up.

it'll either be your ignition system (spark plugs, distributor cap, etc) or more likely your fuel system (most likely your fuel pump or your fuel filter)

Most of the time an engine is supposed to idle at 5-600 RPM in Driveif it's not you can up the idle. But you also may have a vaccume leak.
