Ahsai recommend I try running the simple recalibration proceedure which solve the problem (turn the key to the on position and keep it there for 60 seconds without starting the engine).

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

13 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Following a complete engine rebuild (please see my previous post) Engine Starts just fine and runs on 'choke' without any problems. Idles just fine and no warning lights. Drives fine whilst on 'choke' and immediately after, then following a stop engine dies and will not re-start without throttle input. Release the throttle and the engine cuts Hold a few revs on and everything is fine. Then it will not restart without some throttle on. Tip model so this presents engagement problems Thoroughly cleaned throttle body ...no change. Disconnected MAF no difference Re-calibrated TPS etc no change Suspect MAF so new one on order ANY thoughts would be most welcome as usual

POST 2Original post

Do you have Durametric? Would be good to scan the car and get some more info.

POST 3Original post

Sounds like your 02 sensors are done.like Ahsai says more info is needed.

Thanks for the input No But actively seeking a good deal Is there a guide to what is actually necessary to do basic analysis?

POST 8Original post

Did you recalibrate the throttle? I had somewhat similar symptoms after starting this spring. My battery had completely died because I accidentally unplugged the battery monitor over the winter. My car would run fun until warm, and then it would completely stall at idle (and run rough). Ahsai recommend I try running the simple recalibration proceedure which solve the problem (turn the key to the on position and keep it there for 60 seconds without starting the engine). Probably not your issue, but it might be worth a try since it is simple.

POST 9Original post

Exact symptoms happened to me twice. Both times new MAF fixed the problem. Cleaning the sensor didn't help. Had to replace completely.
