What year? mileage?

Sounds like either a CrankPS, or CamPS.
Does it just die as the key was turned off? Or will it misfire and run rough?

If i come tp a stop after a few minutes the idle is so low its barely running then it dies, or if i dont come to a stop it will just die while driving

So when it is idling, either at a roll or stop it will die.

Clean IAC? maybe replace?

And once its warmed up it doesnt want to start without pumping the gas pedal. Then it drives fine for a couple minutes then it will die again

yup sounds like an IAC, usually they are either 100% or 0%
Sounds like yours is at 0%
