Check for trouble codes. Seems the idling system is not functioning correctly and the cold start is not increasing the idling speed when engine is started.
how would i check fuel pressure??
if it is idling prob wat wud need be replaced ?? thanks for help guys.
If it is an idling problem, cleaning the throttle body and IAC might help but you need to be checking for trouble codes first.
Did you try keeping the engine running with a little pressure on the gas pedal?
yes i tried keeping engine running with acc pedal and this was working all last week up until today when it seems just will not hold revs long enough to go anywhere.
Ok, so it is the idle control system that is out. Get the throttle body and IAC cleaned and retest. Check for trouble codes as well.
ok i will tryvthanks alot you have made much clearer for me . is it possible to clean the throttle body myself? is it difficult job ??
is cleaning throttle body and iac a difficult job? is it possible to do myself??
