I've been having some problems with my motor as of late.
Sometimes, when I go to start the car after I have driven it for a while. It will start, but idle very low then die, even if I give it gas. Also, it wont start again for about a minute or two.

Latley, it will hesitate if I'm at idle and blip the gas, or if I hold it at a certain RPM then take my foot off the gas. Almost like it wants to die.

This doesn't happen all the time either. Please, help a brother out.

Other than that, the car runs great. Smokes, but whatever.

Do a basic tuneup if you haven't done so in a while. My buddy was having similar problems, turned out, his distributor cap had a small crack in it, and would cause the car to idle rough and stumble on acceleration.

 

fuel pump or just dizzy problem do a tune up ike all mtr said

 

I just did a tune-up.
New plugs, dizzy, valve adj.

Fuel pump is only a year old.

Never changed the fuel filter and my plug wires are like 3 years old.

 

Anyone else wanna chime in?

 

Have your ignition coil and igition module tested.

 

Well. The hestitation is no longer an issue.

However. I'm still having the problem where it dies or wont start on the initial start.

Basically, if I drive the car for a while and turn it off, like going to get gas or something...
It has a hard time starting back up or starts then dies.
I've also noticed I wont hear the fuel pump prime when the key is on the ON position when it doesn't start. I'll wait for a bit, then try again, hear the fuel pump prime and bam. It fires right up.

I'm just wondering why the fuel pump isn't priming sometimes?

This went on for about 5 minutes at the gas station today. It started, died, then wouldn't start for a few minutes. So frustrated!

 

sounds like it may be the main relay.

x2 fuel pump could be going even though its only a year old. ive had a bad one straight from napa in my mothers blazer anything can happen that or check your filter and plugs ans wires if they are 3 trs old. and always check that dizzy. i change mine every 8 to 10k just because its not that expencive and its a good idea

 

I vote 'main relay'. The contacts could be wearing away and corroding inside. I have had one of mine have intermittent issues before.

 

Well, I replaced the main relay.

All seems well. No issues at all today, and I drove quite a bit.
I'll know for sure in a few days.

Thanks for the help everyone.

 

No problem just glad your running with no worries.
