I found another thread that had a question similar to mine but there was no answer so im just going to go ahead and ask. My car has trouble starting and it usually takes 4 or 5 tries to get it to keep running then it idles really rough and if you give it gas it bogs way down and sometimes dies. After it is warmed up and has been driven for awhile then it is fine. Lately this problem seems to be getting worse. Almost have my license so need to get the car running well soon. Any help would be greatly appreciated
 
Check your ISC Sensor, most likely its bad, or even clogged inside the actual housing..

These same symptoms happen when people block of the FIAV..

Use to happen to me and i had to manually give the car goes upon start up for a min
 
Im sorry i forgot to mention that i don't have any experience with cars electronics systems and not much experience with cars all around but i love them and am willing to learn so were is the isc sensor
 
mine was the coolant sensor. took 3 or 4 times to start it, then id have to let it run for a min before really running.
