Idling driving stopped motor wants to die spudders and car shakes eventually after a while it will run perfect until the next day

What is your question?

It has never thrown a code and when you first start the car it will idol really rough to you have to put your foot on the break and give it gas to back up but you don't want to back up too fast but you got to give it gas to keep The engine from dying . And then it'll drive rough driving down the highway from my house to Walmart which is probably around 5 miles it will sputter and jerk and just act up like you wouldn't believe and at stop lights and stop signs you have to while you're pressing the break also give it gas to keep the engine from dying . But it seems like if you was to take it down the highway and go for 50 mile trip down the interstate or highway eventually it will drive like nothing is wrong at all until the next day. Tried different fuels brands didn't seem to help

Have it scanned for codes and live data on scanner checked to see what coolant temperature sensor reads.. This needs to be done BEFORE the engine is started after parked overnight ... May have to leave it with mechanic.
