hey, I think i read this somewhere before, some one said to replace some sensor or something, but i cant remamber..

basicly it happaned one time before and now today again.
After driving , I turned off car, and wanted to turn it back on again to move it back, and the RPM's drop and car stalls when i tried to start it again and give gas it still stalled. I waited a few seconds, and it started, but then when i turned it off and on again , it stalled again, I mean its not a big deal to me, but sometimes might prove to be annoying, So i m wondering, how much is the fix? and if i should worry about it ?



well I m going to turn it into a diffrent question, can the clogged egr, and dirty sensor effect the fuel economy?


thanx

How old are the spark plugs? My car is doing the same thing. I purchased new plugs and wires but haven't changed them yet. My car is a 97 with 150k on the original spark plugs. I know, I need to change them soon but the car does this every once and a while and then just works for a long time. I will eventually change them by summer.

Before you get too excited and try changing sensors and stuff......try another tankful of gas and add a can of dry gas.
Sometimes, due to the weather conditions in our area, moisture(water) can cause these conditions.

Wow, you sure did get your money's worth out of those spark plugs.

I am with Alan.
IlyaIlya, your problem sounds more fuel quality or fuel pressure related. However, the IACV is not to be ruled out.

hot soak non restart issues
iacv
timing
one of those 2
bad gas would be a consistant bad drive not just starting
but anything is possible
