Never had any trouble other than the occasional puff of smoke after a short move into the driveway or whatever.

I must be lucky.

Your not alone I can start and restart my car as much as I want and have no problems. He probably has leaky injectors as well. Cool though it runs now.

Satch your my hero. Satch post all kinds of useful info everywhere. i think most people don't have a clue how helpful his answers actually are. I don't have the patience usually.

Either that or the Pulse Damper is bad. And my car hasn't erupted in flames yet, so I'd agree with Skidtron for now. Off fuel mileage and the smell of gas under the hood after 'exercise'.

If I'm not mistaken he could go to the archives now and probably have everything he needs to fix the injector problem or check them at least. As well as the damper.
