Starts up then shuts off....

Hey guys I got a 1990 Rx7 Turbo and some times when I start it up it just idles low then shuts off. I restart it give it a lil bit of gas and it seems ok. This usually happens on warm starts and some times cold starts. I think its dirty fuel injectors but not sure.

It runs fine after when driving.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

RE Stars then dies!!

Try waiting a few seconds for your fuel pump to reach full preasure before you try to start it!! Just a thought, sometimes it`s the simple things!!!
