So i drove to pick my girlfriend for lunch, car started fine when i left, drove for about 20 minutes never over 80mph car ran flawless like always. When we were leaving the resurant however i went to start my car and it started right up...but then died... So i started it again and again it fired right up then died... wtf!? it did it one more time to me, then on the fourth try it started up fine and ran great... I turned it on and off again like another 5 times before we left the parking lot and it was fine... WTF?
It started just fine then the RPM's slowly started to go down untill it died... Possible fuel pump problem? OR Something electrical malfunctioning? I dont get it, i've never even heard of this happening ever before, to anyone... thanks -------------------- 1 JL 1,000/1v2

1 thing to try is sometimes cars have tough starts, saw that once ever in my car, your problem sounds exactly like mine. when you turn the key over, put some gas into it until it stabilizes. It should stay on and you probably won't see that problem again. I bought like fuel system cleaner after that.
