  • startup sickness?

    this is a weird one... for the past few months, i've been havin probs with my car right when it starts up. Basically what happens is i start it up no problem, but as soon as i try to get some speed, it feels like i have very limited throttle response. then if i push it past about 50%, it jumps forward. i do this a few times (or just floor it once) and its all better. only happens when im cold starting. ideas?

      let the car warm up then. Chances are it really doesn't like cold weather. I had a car like that, it just...didn't like cold weather.

        Start simple, change the fuel filter. Maybe the air filter is very dirty, and the air flow sinser iss not picking up air flow. Id change both and see what happens.
