I have a 1991 dodge stealth 3.0 sohc which i have had previous problems with... my computer fried in it and would not run... i replaced my computer and my idle speed sensor because of the testing from the old computer that is what made my computer go out... ok so i put both those back into my car and the car runs great just like it used to... my problem now is getting it to start. i have to pump the throttle rabidly over and over for it to fire when the engine is cold..once the car starts it runs perfect.. i have replaced the fuel pump fuel sock and fuel filter on this car...still very hard to start. i really dont understand how pumping the throttle when cranking is helping it start on an EFI car...when the engine is warm i can usually start it without touching the throttle or if i do its one press on the throttle.any help at all would be greatly appreciated. thanks mike
