I'm having trouble with the car starting, it will crank but won't start, unless I press down on the gas while cranking, then it'll work normal... but if I let go of the padel it will go dead again. Almost like the car don't know how to idle and I have to give it a little to idle.<P>What is causing this?<P>

 

[mpeng168]

o2 sensor probably...<P>especially if it can barely idle without adding throttle...and goes away slightly as the engine warms...black exhaust too<P>

Could be idle air motor or a leak in a boost hose. Also could be MAF.<P>Check all of the hoses from turbo to TB.<P>Prospero<P>

Its not a turbo so its not a hose leak.<P>maybe air censor? It doesn't idle at all if I don't press on the gas. However this problem goes away after maybe 30 min usually.<P>Hey Prospero I changed my mind and I wanna do LEDs for my dash and stuff, can you help me?

Re: (Driver850)

Could it be fuel pump related? The pump near in injectors not the one in the gas tank.<p>-Michael S.
