Default Low Idle

Hey guys, so I have a low idling problem which has never really bothered me so far. However, this morning i was leaving my house, started up my car (no problem) went into reverse (still no problem), Got out of the drive way and went to put it in drive and the car died on me... Its an automatic so I didnt stall.... what could be the problem... I had to hold the key for quite a bit of time for it to start up again.... What do you guys think?

Also, do you think that if I were to adjust the minimum air intake screw to allow more air in, you think that would fix it?
