When Starting a Cold Engine
It always fires up immediately, idles properly, and runs perfectly.
When Starting a Warmed-Up Engine
- With no gas pedal applied, it stumbles on startup and doesn't start. It requires more than one attempt to start.
- If 1/8 - 1/4 gas pedal is applied (and held) during startup, then it fires right up.
- In both scenarios, once it starts, it idles properly and runs perfectly.
Somewhere in the forum, I recall reading this scenario. The solution was to clean a certain intake part. I can't find the post, nor do I remember which part. What intake part do I need to clean? Thanks for your help.
