Something wrong with car - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #10903 6 posts Started by XE_Nathaniel
When I turn on my car the car immediately has extremly low idle and sometimes it just dies. Everyday I have to rev it a little bit to get it going. Idle turns to normal when I hear a "sucking" sound. So any idea why i'm not getting an immediate vacum..suck..intake of air..whatever lol

Thanks alot guys..sorry I haven't been posting lately..been really busy...

possibly fuel filter
im gunna guess you have a vacum leak , or .. somthing to do first, check yuor plugs an wires, then check your gas cap, then change filters.. gas filter,... the check for leaks.
my car was doing that for a little while to, like low ideling when I'd come to a stop, it hasn't done it in a while. I'd also like to know what could cause this?

your throttle body is probably going, take the intake off the throttle body and pull the throttle and make sure that the butterfly doesn't hang up and shuts totally when you let the throttle go.
My car was having a similar problem this past winter- took me about 15 minutes on a cold day to get the car to start and keep running. Turned out to be the oxygen sensor. It was also making a buzzing noise when I started the engine and for about 30 seconds afterwards. Expensive fix- $500!
