'00 GT's actin a fool again
Hey... I think I mentioned this once before but my 00 GT is actin up again.
When I start her, she revs normal then drops super low, almost to shall, shakes for a about 0.6 seconds and then goes back to normal and no more problem. I'm running 93 now instead of 87. I am thinking it's normal combustion or the fact that she is overdue for an oil change & tuneup. What do you guys think? I am just being paranoid probably... but it got down to the point of 600 RPMS once when doing it which seriously, is almost stalling. However, it's been 2 weeks now with perfect starts. Think it is just the exceptionally cold mornings and the normal combustion?

I don't know the cause but mine does the same thing every now and again. Sometimes it doesn't turn over the first time. The second try it always starts right up. For me it can't be the cold because it happened in the Summer too.

Mine does the same thing every now and then even in the summer. First time I try to crank it sometimes it won't start then I turn it over again and it starts right up.

LOL I have the exact opposite problem of you my pony likes to jump at low speeds. I will be backing out of a parking stall and the thing will just take off on me. I would try the oil change I'm maybe fresh fluids will make it feel right. I think somebody mentioned this and it was their IAD was dirty and that was the problem.
