First of all, it's probably not strange, just strange to me. I've been reading up on TPS, IAC, MAP sensors and such here and I can't seem to see the same issue as I am having. Don't know if you guys can point me in the correct direction.
First of all, this is a 2000 with 102k on it.
Recently(the last week) I've been having a hard time starting the rig. It is turning over as if the battery is dying(really slow turn over) and then will fire up. Battery is good, so I am thinking the starter may be giving me some issues. Then, last night it would fire(With the same weird starting issues), but not stay running. After trying to start is a couple of times. I started it and kept the throttle open. After I kept the throttle open for a minute or so (idling about 1500rpm) it continued to run. I drove it home(About 10 minutes varying in speeds from 25-55) and it died heading up my driveway. This AM, I came out to test it and it is turning over funny still, but started right up. I've run a couple of errands this AM and there have been no issues besides the weird startup.
So, can you guys help me narrow this thing down?
Thanks
