In the mornings I start my car up and go to the end of my street, as im stopping to turn my engine almost always die, fast or slow driving. When I try starting it back up the engine takes a while. When it does start I have to pump the gas to get the engine going or it it can stall out again. The thing that gets me is when the engine is warm it wont do this, it's only when the engine is cold. Note that there are no engine light on. Any help would be greatly appreciatted, Thanx.
