Car is starting again but still a problem...

I took my car to a mechanic who charged me $50 to find why it wouldn't start. I don't think he knew what he was talking about but he brought up getting a new computer.
When I start the car (only after it is off a long time) it runs like it is being starved of gas, at like 100-200 rpm but when I press the gas it tries to die. Then picks up after like five minutes and runs fine the rest of the day. Fuel pressure is at 40 psi (according to mechanic) and I'm assuming it is getting gas beause he said it was flooded when I took it there. I guess because I used the gas to try and start it many times beforehand.
After it picks up a little bit (before it starts running fine) I can give it gas and it will try to rev up but it seems hard to do.
Would a bad turbo cause this? Sorry for so much explanation but I'm afraid to take it to another ignorant mechanic.

It could be a bad ecu but not as likely as other common problems. Did you check for a boost leak? Did you (or the mechanic) check the MAF. A bad turbo could cause problems but not what you describe. A really easy way to do a brief check of the ecu is to take it out and pull it out of it's case, if a resistor or capacitor has gone bad it should be clearly visible if the acid has not burned through the circuit board you can replace the individual capacitors and resistors but it may just be easier to find a good used ecu. Good luck with the problem.

If the caps did leak on the board I would really suggest getting it repaired as opposed to replaced. You have a 95, which is most likely an EPROM so you want to hang on to that.

Or you could trade me your EPROM for my ECU...I'll even throw in the pocketlogger for free :naughty:

build or buy a leakdown tester.

no venting the BOV. check the hoses around the BOV to be sure there are no oblivious leaks.

idel air control valve or losing fuel presure in fuelrail and its takes a little while to presure your system up,a fuel presure reg. is suppost to stop that
