Ok so when i start my car she runs idle up real high about 2k then falls around 800 but idle jumps and she stutters. She feels like she is gonna die but doesn't. After i give her some gas and let her run for a little while she'll stop doing it. But when she is stuttering and i try to gas her throttle response sucks. it feels like if i give it gas it takes a couple seconds for it to respond. once idle is settled she has no problem and throttle respose is normal again. I thought maybe i had a vaccum/boost leak some where bud didn't find any. Ideas???

i would be more worried about your knock sensor problem. then go on to the rough cold start. knock sensors are like heart monitors.

Yeah I was concerned about it at first but it popped on right after i finished installing the new harness and didn't have that problem before i changed it. So i put it off and didn't really think about it til brought up now

I'm sorry. About half way through reading that, I about had Mountain Dew come through my nose. No hate though, we all got love for our baby girls.

LOL.

If anything, SHE is the one that needs to lose weight.

Same goes with mine, after a while, I got sick of having to DRAG her around everywhere, she weighed so much, so one day, we got in an argument and I just ripped her insides out and laid down bedliner. She's been acting much better now when we're out in public.

:rolleyes:

I've slapped her a couple times. I'm jacking my own thread...

thats hilarious!

if the harness was not new, then it probably has some bad knock sensor wires. you might have to do a rewire.
