Ok so I go to start my car and as soon as it starts it cuts....it does that 3-4 times then I have to start while pressib on the gas then it stays on. If any of you guys have seen my fuel oressure test might have even nore info. So this will be my next project and questions and comments that would help solve this please let me hear them

 

Bump. Its happening more often

 

Hey George, I never made it to Salt Lake City today, got stuck on the job site, crazy tight schedule. Will try and get you an answer tomorrow. Will call if I have to.

 

Unfortunately, I'm not sure what to suggest. I want to think fuel pump, but as I understand, a couple stalls and then she no restart.

A bad coil, plug or injector would cause a mis-fire, not a full out stall... Could be an ICM or Fuel Pressure regulator??

For grins, you can take the ICM off, have the guys at most parts stores bench test it.... See what that says....

 

Any codes?

Just throwing suggestions, MAF sensor or clogged CAT.

 

Man I must be tired lol.... MAF is a good one (and common). If it's the CAT, that normally is associated with performance problems (hard to accelerate and such).

 

Thats what I thoight MAF or an idle problem... but that would make it die while running too... a very plogged cat could cause this too.

 

The only code I've been getting is po440 and clean my maf every other week I was gonna pick up a fuel pressure regulator today and hopefully this will solve the problem. To remove it do I unscrew this torx bit here what size might this be?

 

I'm thinking IAC in your TB. If you need to give it gas to keep it running the idle controller might not be functioning.

 

Well not to keep it running mike, like it would die 1 sec after I start it and if I give it gas it will rev up and stay on. After that it drives nornal
