Cleaned the throttle body and intake (gunk and build up)
Replaced the hose that was flattened
cleaned and inspected everything

Now it fires right up and idles a lot smoother.

1. Fuel Filter
2. If not IAC, check for vacuum at IAC, listen for vacuum leak ANYWHERE
3.Fuel Pressure,HOPE IT AINT THIS, changin fuel pump is a BBEEEEAAAATCHH!!
4.Check how strong spark is at coil/coils, when they go bad they work good until they warm up, then they work but not so good.

Dont be fooled at the mileage, your good for another 100k.
