Ive posted bout a 3 weeks ago on how to remove a blasted crankshaft
pulley and then eventually  found a way and finally changed out the
water pump,re-installed the timing belt, and put the alternator back
one....(all this because the tensioner mount for the alternator broke
off the piece of water pump in which it was mounted too!!...Hence the
whole swap out) Saved me like 350 bucks! However...........now that I
got everything back together, put the battery back on, fill the
radiator,put the belts on, etc.etc. .....the car starts but wont stay
runing without me manually keeping my foot on the pedal. It runs
normally now cept when I remove my foot...the rpm starts dropping and
then it just stalls at like somewhere below 1k. I tried to keep it up
and above 1k and slowly realease my foot from the pedal hoping it will
idle on its own but once my foot leaves that pedal.....the rpm drops
below 1k then it dies. Can someone here point me in the right
direction?
