New problem with the Evo:
I've recently been experiencing difficulty getting the car to engage in first gear. Most of the time it's after the car has been off for longer than 30 minutes.
I get in the car. Start the car. Put it in first. Rev it up to around 1800k- 2000k rpm and slowly let the clutch out while gradually increasing the throttle.
While doing so the car sounds like it about to stall out. Especially when I got the air con ON.
I manage to get the car moving, then it starts bogging out, stutters and jerks a few times like its about to stall.
After playing with the throttle a bit it finally catches and off I go.
I tried letting the car warm up for a minute or two but thats only on a cold start. Sometimes it feels as if I have to let it warm up every time I get in the car. Even if I went in
7-11 to grab a drink.
Anyone got a clue what could he happening?
