Car Turning Off

Hi everyone

I currently have a 1994 R33 gts25 that has done 115,000 kms. I drove my car home yesterday from work like usual.. parked my car in the garage for about 1 1/2 hours, got back in the car, it turned on but then the revs started to drop off untill the car was no longer running. I tried turning it on a few times more but the same thing happened. I then turned the car on again and held the revs at 2000 rpm which kept the car running but if i let off the car would stop. I tried again and turned the a/c off this time and held the revs at 2000rpm and the car didnt turn off and started idling like normal I turned the a/c back on and nothing happened. I left the car for a few hours and came back and tried again but it turned off. I then started again with the a/c on and held the revs and the car started idling like normal. Ever since then I can turn the car on normally.

I thought maybe it was gunk in the throttle body and after reving the car it has just cleaned it's self out. Maybe the throttle body needs a clean? Even though I had it cleaned by the mechanics last time I took the car for a service which was 3000-5000kms ago

Could it be a problem with the spark plugs?

Could it be a problem associated with fuel?

Also it was a 37 degree day

What could this be?

i'd start by cleaning the AAC/IAC valve. this controls the idle, as well as how much extra air is put in when accessories (such as the air con) is turned on.

do a search to find the thread on how to clean it
