you need to get a scanner on it to see what's going on. it could be the tps or the iac or several other things. you may have injectors leaking and causing a minor flooding situation and by opening the throttle you are allowing enough air into the engine to compensate. I would find someone with a scanner and check out the tps readings first of all. it should read around .54 volts with the throttle closed and go up to around 4 volts at WOT.
