Angry 1999 won't start, idle air intake problem

I joined this group in hopes someone could help me with a rather puzzling problem I am having. My Cherokee won't start unless I hold down the gas pedal and then slowly let off the gas. The problem is intermittant, although it has become much more prevalent over the past month or so. After taking the air intake hose off the vehicle, I noticed that the idle air intake valve was not opening on ignition. So I replaced the idle air intake valve, but still have the same problem. I also replaced the throttle position sensor, again with no luck. I have checked the fuel injection valves, and there are no leakes, and nothing appears to be gumming up the air intake. All the hoses are in good shape, and I can't find a sign of leaking anywhere. At this point I am not sure what else to check. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Chris
