Problems!
My car starts up in the morning every time. No problem there. The problem is sometimes, I shut it off to run in a store or something, come back out, try to start it, and it wont start. I have to keep the gas pedal all the way to the floor and after a few seconds of cranking it will sputter and start out slow and finally get up to the needed rpms to stay going. It doesnt happen all the time, but its getting to the point that its done it its fair amount of times to scare the crap out of me. Also, I'll be cruising down the road doing about 35 and It will maintain it's speed without me touching the accelerator. When I get to a stop light, it will sometimes (not always) idle at 3 grand or so, then I'll get to another and it will be normal. Even when hot. I took it into the mechanic and of course, he found nothing. The engine's been scoped, No vacuum leaks, and maintence is up to par. What is the deal here, and I dont exactly have all the money in the world... what is cheap to fix this, or what would you do?
:huh:
