hey guys. another question. when i start my car first thing in the morning i have to hold the rpms around 850 to 900 for about 30 seconds for it to catch. it also does this if it sets for 6 hours or more. what could possibly be the cause? i have done all the tune-ups minus changing the fuel filter. all help is greatly appreciated.

 

WEll did you make sure everything was connected well. SOunds like she needs heat to run properly.

Double check your work. make sure the spark plugs are tight. I had this happen to me and it was caused by a lose spark plug ratling around.

 

my chevelle does it too.. im not quite sure. Hmm.. good point, it started after the plugs were changed....

the car was like that before i did anything to it.(should have mentioned that first) i made sure that all is ok on the work i did. still confused. i did notice however that i have a small leak in my exhaust manifold, bolts are broken off.
