when the car is cold it fires right up. runs a little ruff then in just a min it lines right out. you can drive it 10 miles or a hundred miles and it runs fine. all the gauges are right on. shut the car off and now you got a problem. it will start right up and then dies. changed fuel pump and filter. no help. there is a slight sweet gas smell when this happens, and the electronics on the dash go ape.it shows no codes. i do acc get a service asr light but that seems to be random. you can let the car sit for 10 min and it will start right up sometimes. other times it may take 2 hours before it will start. car has 95 thou on it auto trans. i have changed opti spark, water pump, plugs wires, egr valve. after these changes the car ran fine. this problem just started. just put brakes, rotors, and shocks on [ that was about as easy as any car i have ever worked on i was very surprised and pleased] i don't think this would have anything to do with this problem but you never know so i thought i would include it. the car acts like its not getting enough fuel. i don't know squat about fuel injection or computers so any help would be app. thanks robert
