ok, here it goes...I parked my car for the winter a little early this year (back in September) , anyways a few weeks ago I went to start it up after connecting the battery and it started up fine, but the problem Im having is that it wont hold idle. The RPM's in park are hovering around 400-600 and it sutters and then dies. But if I hold the gas its fine, it doesnt hesitate when I bring the RPM's up. So it doesnt hold idle in park much less when you put it in drive (under load in general). Also when it dies it starts up fine again. Before the car was parked it got new plugs, cap and rotor, o2 sensor, wires...etc., you name it.

So.... what do u guys think????

fuel pump,injectors?, it seems to me like a fuel problem but i could be totally wrong.

also the car sat outside and it could be moisture or something, before I parked it i put fuel stabilizer in the tank and it was at half tank, could it be bad gas causing it???



any help I could get would be most appreciated...

thanks,
Pablo

 

check the air filters fot a mouse nest
or it could be just that your throttle body plates are dirty
open the blades and wipe them with carb-clean or air intake cleaner

 

my buddy had the same prob with his truck.. the problem was some vacuum line got disconected so whenever he let off the gas it would die..

put the hose back on and it was fixed

 

ttt

 

does anybody else have any ideas????

I am really at a loss with this problem.

thanks
