Subject:87 westy will not idle

Hi all,

     Had a interesting problem this morning.  I went out to start my bus about 4:30am & the bus would start but die as soon as I let off the gas.  I tried this about 5 times but could not get it to idle.  Finally took another car too work.  The bus drove fine all yesterday.  Drove about 60 miles all day with no problems.  Anybody got any ideas where to start?  I replaced the idle control unit about a month ago.  Could this have gone bad?  TIA.
