1994 Mazda MPV mileage: 70,000. Sometimes in the morning when I go to start the mini van and let it warm up for about five minutes or so, the engine seems like it wants to die out and shut off. I have to play with the gas pedal to keep it running. Could there be something wrong with my fuel system or is there a vacuum leak somewhere? I hope you can help me solve this problem and any suggestion you have I will be very grateful. Thank you.

Your car may be ready for a major tune-up including spark plugs, plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, fuel filter and air filter. Also, perform a fuel pump pressure test. Clean fuel injection system including throttle bore, idle speed control motor and passages. If problem still exists, scan computer for trouble codes.
