2000 GT stalls during start when hot/humid outside

Aug 23, 2004 1 Replies

During start, the engine will stall if I lift my foot off the accelerator. Sort of feels like the idle is set improperly (if the car had a carb). This happens only during rainy or very hot days. After warming up for



5-10 minutes, all is OK again. There is no vibration at all when this happens (so it looks like all cylinders are working). Anyone know what this could be? In the old days I would change the fuel filter next to the carb, but have no idea where it is on my GT. (A friend of mine told me it is now under the car.)

Thanks Mark


I dunno if it'd be the fuel filter or not, but it is located near the fuel tank itself underneath the car. You can crawl under the car & see it pretty easily.
