When I start my vehicle it struggles to hold a start like it’s not getting enough fuel to hold it. Sometimes I have to gas it a little and slowly release it so it stays idling. I’ve changed the spark plugs and fuel injectors. I’m not sure what to do please help!

Hi Dylan.

I need to better understand what is happening. Do you mean it sounds like the idle is too low and it may stall or is there a problem with the starter disengaging?

Let me know. Also, in addition to the plugs and fuel injectors, let me know what else has been done or checked.

Thanks,
Joe
