So I come back from my business trip, and
jump in the bolt. Fire it and it runs like CRAP.

Missing, shaking, yuck!!!

So I drove easy for about a half mile and things
seemed to straighten out.

Anyone have any ideas? It was parked in the
garage at the airport for 4 days. Have been doing
that for months ... Now this!!!

Thanks,

 

I think it is the neglect. She doesn't like that.

Seriously, I don't have a clue. Hope you figure it out.

Could be the IAC ?

 

The attendants at the parking garage topped your tank with 89 octane when they brought it back from their night on the town.

 

can anyone say ferris bueler??

 

If you are running a chip, pull it and clean the contacts. When electricity crosses a set of contacts, carbon will buildup over time.

 

Jay is probably on track. Another possibility could be a leaking injector. When parked the fuel system remains under pressure. If one of the ijectors is weak it could drip fuel into the cylinder. This would cause the poor running until the excess fuel is burnt.

 

Thanks, guys ... I'm just stock, so it prolly isn't the chip.
The way it staightened out, I was suspect of bad gas,
but the "pressure" thing makes sense.... I run it pretty
hot into the garage at teh airpoort and dash for my
flight.....not much cool off time there.....

 

Before you drive it anymore, go out and check your plugs. One could be loose and it's wiggling around making it run like poop and wiggle it self back semi-tight to run OK.

Thanks Brett .... I'll check that in the morning ...
