About 2 or 3 times in a week, i start my car up in the morning, cranks over but dies, so i have to start it and give it gas to keep it alive...could this be a clogged fuel filter or something more? it seems to be lacking the gas flow...plz help a brotha out.

last time toyota changed out the O2 sensor and it worked for awhile but still happened. they blame toyota for not making a good 02 sensor.

if it were your o2 sensor you may be using some kind of bad gas, but after you get it running how does it run?

how was it running at idle before u flipped on the ac? Could be a proble w/ the idle up thingy (forget its exact name).
It could still be a large number of things. What was the temp. when u went to start it today? -------------------- AIM : FAQdaWorld

Does it start back up okay after it dies? To be honest I'm not sure at all what you have going on, just trying to narrow down problems that I've had ya know?
Check your spark plugs if you dont mind, and check it they are fouled out? -------------------- AIM : FAQdaWorld

Something like that happened to my celi awhile back. Cold mornings I'd have to gas it for a bit to keep the engine going and on steep inclines or use of A/C when I would come to a stop the rpms would drop down and the car would shudder and then the engine would die. Try replacing the IAC I replaced that and everything was hunkey dory
