Unfortunately it could be a million things, most common might be the fuel pressure is weak. Some GM vehicles if the fuel pressure is below spec it would not start at all.Previous F-bodies<br />1.1980Z A3<br />2.1991Z A4 5.0<br />3.1994 coupe M5<br />4.1993 TA A4<br />5.1998 coupe A4<br />Currently restoring a 1980Z<br />and looking to pick up a 1998-2002 M5

Idle Air Controller.
It's on the throttle body. I has two torx bolts holding it in. A little plastic part. If you pull it out you will see a spring-like plunger appendage.1998 M5 3.8 Mystic Teal Camaro<br />Flowmaster exhaust, Pacesetter headers, 3\" cat, 3\" S-pipe, whisper lid, ram air, Spec Stage 1 clutch, Poly Trans mount, Walbro 255LPH.
