Ran great yesterday. This morning will not start without giving it gas. When you let up it dies. Sounds fine while giving it gas . Changed plugs ( needed them anyway) Fuel and air filters. Any Ideas

Throttle positioning sensor?
Mike opined in news:VD3%c.9183$w% snipped-for-privacy@newsread1.news.pas.earthlink.net:
Idle Speed Control, aka idle Air Bypass. the mechanism right adjacent to throttle. suspect solenoid.
Assume it doesnt idle even after warmed?
It was the Idle air valve . Loosened the mounting screws and made a gap for air to flow an woohoo we have idle. Took a little liquid wrench and cleaned it up and shes good to go. Mike
