Everytime i try to start my car after it has been sitting for about an hour, the engine just turns and when i let of the key, it comes to life spuddering and bogging for about 4-5 seconds then its all ok. I just want to know what this is so it wont lead to a bigger problem and ill be stranded cuz it wont start. Any help is certainly appreciated.

check your TPS, AIC, MAP and timing or you maybe runing to rich.

 

sorry Im sleepy its IAC not AIC

 

Check out your fuel filter or fuel pump

 

I have a new tps and fuel filter. I had the feeling that im running to rich but im not sure. i thought i could be having a leaky injector that when it sits for too long it floods the cylinder and thats y there is a big pow and smoke on start up. Or is it poosible i have a bad fuel pump. im clueless

 

I found what the problem was, bad igniter. swapped it out and like 4 days later my coil was bad too so i swapped that out and it all runs fine for now. o yeah and FYI civic igniters and coils fit in the ls distributor
