pre-stall condition

Whenever I start my car, it chugs...

That's the best description. It's like it is going to stall, but as soon as i mash down the pedal, everything is ok.

This happens every time I start the car. It started when i moved down to Florida, so I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the heat. But i dont think it does, since the car does the same thing when I start it at 6 AM and it's been in the garage overnight.

And yes, i did a tune-up. Plugs, cap & rotor. And no, it didnt change a damn thing.

Please give some direction so I can tackle this on my next day off.

Joe

I have the same problem, I clean the TB and it goes away until it gunks up again.
