When I start my Celi after it has been cold for awhile (as short as 2 hours) it wont idle high enough to stay on! the rpm's just drop till it dies, I either have to give it gas to idle it, or rev it up and the self idle finally kicks on! I know reving a cold engine is terrible for any car! anything would help.

Man i didnt know this topic was here. I just posted a topic ascking the same thing. This just started to happen to my car too. 75000 miles. I replaced the battery, spark plugs, and wires, cleanned the fuel system, all today and it is still happening. Heres the thing, when the engine is cold it starts fine, When it is still really hot it starts fine, but when it cools down for like 2-3 hours its doing the dieing thing. I dont get it. No one knows what the problem is becasue when they go to look at it, it doesnt happen. Including the dealership, dont go there. They r crooks. Im thinking it might be a fuel filter or something in those lines. I hope someone fines this problem and what it is....
