MX83 Idle Problems

Hi Guys,
I'm having a few issues with the idle in my MX83 Cressida.
I start the car and let it warm up for 5 minutes,
drove it to the service station, got out bought a coke,
got back in, started it. Heres where the problem started...
the car wouldn't idle and then dies straight away!
I started it 2 more times, and it died each time the same way.
If I use the throttle to keep the idle above 1000 RPM the
engine will stay on, but the second I take my foot off the
throttle, it splutters, the engine light comes on, then it dies.
Any ideas? My mate and I looked at it and nothing seems to
be wrong under the hood (no vaccum hoses broken or anything)
and I can rev it to 6000RPM OK and it all sounds/feels sweet.
I can even floor it while driving and it revs out fine and pulls
all the way to 6500RPM and changes no worries.
Its got a higginbottom rebuilt 7M-GE motor in it with about
8,000kms on it so it should be OK. maybe a TPS sensor or
something?
I really need this car to get to work, so any help would be
sweet.
Cheers,
Bart
