First off I have carbs so am not familiar with FI.

However, it sounds like you have an idle problem where your mixture is too lean. Either you have vaccuum leaks (too much air) or too little gas. Look for vaccuum leaks.

Also check your ballast resistor if you have one. It causes start then stall conditions.
