Start up bogging

[dornon13]

The problem is when it is hot outside my car has trouble starting up. I crank it and it fires then wants to die out. i have to give it gas to keep it from dying. my question is what is the function i use to fix this i am not 100% sure its rich on start up but im pretty sure since it smells rich but the wideband isnt warmed up at that time so i cant tell for sure

Leave the ignition switch on without starting the engine. THis should warm the wideband and get readings when you start the engine. Also try increasing the idle valve duty cycle

Is the engine an OBD2 car?

yes its obd2a i moved the slider up(right) one notch and im not for sure but i think it might have made it worse im gonna play with it when i actualy get time but i figured i would post anyways

[dornon13]

i increased the crank fuel a tad and i think it is working we'll give it a few more tries see if it keeps it up

Try unplugging the purge valve located on either the firewall or the manifold.

Yep, hence the reason I asked if it was an OBD2 car.

thanks i will give it a shot. does obd1 not have this valve therefor making it run a little awkward?
