Default Wierd problem with EK

When i start the car, i let it sit and after sitting for 30 sec it will practicly stall. The car shakes and well its about to stall. This only lasts like 1 sec and then the car will automaticly go back to normal. After this happens and i begin to drive, i go into first gear and the car feels like its about to stall again. The car starts to jurk and will not accelerate. After this happens then it will run fine, becides always ideling low, and irraticly. What could this be?

Mine does this also. I haven't a clue why it does it. I've heard that our throttle cables catch sometimes and thats what makes it seem weird when we start to go, but I honestly have no idea.

do you have a cel? if not then i would assume your idle screw on top of the t/b may have backed off a tad and may need to be adjusted. other than that you may have a leek in the I/M thru the gasket or another timing issue. if you have no cel it may be hard to tell but its OBDII so anyone that has a code scanner can check it out for any pending codes or even realtime it as you drive.
