car wont start

Black Five 0h · January 4th, 2008, 10:32 AM

so i always loved the fact of having a quick car and having it start all the time, well now after i ran new fuel lines it doesnt like starting and it takes a while which it shouldnt then i cant touch the gas for about 2-3 min or else it stalls...im running stock, efi. anyone had this problem before i never had it until i did the lines over and btw it is 8* here in ct.

what fuel pump, regulator and size are the lines?

Maybe you have a bad temp sensor?

What is your fuel pressure?

Black Five 0h · January 4th, 2008, 01:32 PM

I understand, but it has also gotten colder since then...so it stands to reason that the cold temp enrichment might not be kicking in.

Also, with new lines and whatnot, I'd definitely check the fuel pressure.

where would that sensor be

ryans88gt · January 4th, 2008, 03:12 PM

In the black coolant tube on the passenger side of the motor. There is also a Air Charge sensor on the lower intake that goes into one of the runners. It could also be the offending sensor. Maybe check for codes.
