How much you want for it??


You could try cleaning the MAF filaments, like I had mentioned in another thread (although somewhat unrelated to this issue).. It's easy and quick.. I doubt that's your problem, but it might be something tolook at...

Went and mass air, still no help. Borrowed a scan tool no codes found in pending or history.
Any other thoughts. It has to be something that im skipping over. Could having no cats on the car do this. It has a off road h-pipe. But it has been on a while. Any other help to fix this thing before i get anymore made and sell this thing.

And it is almost like the first start when it dies is like to clear the motor out. And then it runs good after that. Thought it might the vavle seals but would i not have oil on the plugs after sitting, the plugs looked great.

Well, you could always check your fuel pressure at the rail.. It is slightly possible, that your system has some sort of air leak, or loss of pressure, so that the first it starts, it's trying to re-pressurize, and then comes on suddenly.. Normally though, that would create a hard-start issue right off the bat. It could also have something to do with the fuel pump, but I feel like I'm just erroneously throwing ideas out there now...

I'd say see if you can get a gauge and check your pressure at the rail on first start of the day, and after it dies, see if you can get a good reading....
