The reason I ask is that whenever I first start my car, and for the next several miles, I need to drive with two feet. Get's kinda hard when I'm making a right handed turn to prevent the car from stalling.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Does it start shaking, about to fall dead when you stop at a red light? If so, try putting it in neutral while you sit at the red light, the idle will rise a little bit and it won't fall dead. Just remember to go back into drive when the light turns green.
