Re: Start/Stalling prob (16V)

["HB" <bhonnold@pac-cap.com>]

Possibly the idle switch on the throttle body stuck in either the on or off
position...when the car is cold to kinda warm the comjputer is recieving a
false signal and causes the engine to run over-rich.  This gets straightened
out by the oxy sensor once the temp sender is up to operating temperature.

On the other hand it is most likely due to an internal error of the Honnold
Enrichment Module.  I talked with that guy the other day and he's a total
hack.

Can't believe you acutally paid money for that thing.  Sheesh
