Really rough startup after inactivity?
Posted: May 3rd, 2005, 12:31 pm
92 GS with a KL-ZE. I went away for the weekend, and took a rental. Left the MX-3 in the garage. Came back 4 days later and when I started up my car, it started shaking really violently for for about 5-10 seconds, then died down into normal cold idle (RPMs steady around 1-2), and then after driving it and warming up the car, the ROMs dropped back to .5/1 for a nice smooth idle as it always does after the car has been warmed up.
So obviously I'm concerned about the shaking though. I mean, it shook the whole car. It did this once before about a week or two ago after I had not driven the car for a couple of days. It wasn't quite as bad though... it was so quick I almost missed it.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Any ideas? I did searches on the board but came up with nothing. Any help/insight would be appreciated. If there is a problem, I'd like to get it in ASAP before it escalates.
