Hey Guys, little issue. Ok sometimes when I start up my car, it doesn't even get to idle it just dies and I start it up again and its fine. But latley its been taken a couple tries, and now latley its been feeling like I've been pulling a Mack Truck behind me, it just feels very heavy. Im thinking it could be vacuum leak, or spark plug issue?

Have you pulled any codes? Autozone will scan for free and you can then let us know what is next!

My car has about 47,000 miles on it. I doubt the fuel filter has been changed or even looked at. No I havent pulled any codes, i should run that by autozone and see.

Clean MAF, clean or replace IAC, replace fuel filter, reset PCM.

This should fix it
