Teg stalls immediately after it starts
It is getting alot colder here 30-40 degrees. and my car is now doing this thing where I turn the key and it fires up but only for less than a second and then it immediately stalls. This will continue for a few times. Usually by about the time I start yelling profanity at it.
Then I can get it to start which leads me to believe either (a) It is demon possesed and needs its fix of profanity, (b) the fact that after a few unsuccessful starting attempts, I lightly press the gas and a few attempts later, it starts, (c) my actions mean nothing and this is an ignition related problem that fixes itself intermitantly, or (d) I am totally lost.
Plugs and wires are new, cap and rotor is ordered. Intake resonator was removed when I actually cared about getting a slight performance improvement and mean growl, so intake air is very cold, but no colder than a usual cold start. This is my $900 work beater, so it must start reliably.
