94 Corsica, 3.1 engine. Car starts pretty hard, but will start eventually. If you hold the gas pedal down a bit, it will stay running, and seems to run OK (no misfire). Once you let off the gas pedal it will kind of stutter and then stall out, almost like it's running out of gas.
I still have to do some diag on it, and go through all the basics (fuel, spark, etc), just haven't had time yet. Wanted to see if there was anything common with these cars that goes bad before I start digging into things.
This is a friend of mine's car who I'm trying to help out. Not real enthused, since its an old rusty, crooked, high mileage beater with poor maintenance. Would like to tell her to get something a bit more reliable, but she doesn't have much money so we have to do what we have to do!
