    Lq4 starts and dies

    Having an issue lately with my tune. Lately I've been having an issue with my truck. It only happens when it's a normal operating temperature. I turn the truck off, go into the store, come back out and start the truck and it will immediately die. And will continue to keep doing this unless I give it gas as soon as it starts. I have to maintain the idle for a few seconds and then it will idle on its own. But this doesn't do it all the time. Only sometimes.

    Check your coolant temp when your having these problems. Notorious for ect sensor to take a dump and cause a too rich hot restart problem to be present. You can also watch the coolant temp during a cold start on your scanner and see if it all of a sudden jumps up to around 140 or 160 degrees...
