Its been happening more and more now. But when i drive my car for a bit and then shut it off for a few minutes to go get something (store), i start my car and it starts up then emmidiately bogs down (it seems) and starts spuddering at like 200 rpm's then shuts off. If i try to re-start it immidiately it won't, it just cranks and cranks. But it ALWAYS starts after i wait atleast 2-3 minutes, then runs completely fine. It seemed like it use to do it when i was low on gas but now wether i drive it 10 miles or 100 miles and shut it off it will do it. I'd say it does it a good 2-3 out of 5 times. Its really weird and i have no idea what to look for.

Correct, absolutely nothing. I seem to recall it doing it once or twice when i go to start it (after overnight) but we thought it was because it was low on gas and the fuel filter was dirty. We switched it out and havn't had it happen after sitting overnight in months. It seems like its acting up recently, like within the past month. But a few months ago it would do it to after driving around the big city for a bit and shutting it off, i would re-start it after 15 minutes and it would bog down and hsut off. Even if i try to give it gas when its doing this it dosnt seem to change a thing. I think when i hit the gas when its bogging i can hear the intake sucking air but its not doing anything...

I'd like to know this as well.
Mine starts up every morning and everytime I get off work perfectly. But, If I have to stop anywhere on my way to work (bank, gas station, etc), it's a bitch. But, it'll start up after about 2-3 mins, just like the OP's.

my sister's cb is doing the same thing.... a mechanic once told me to check my ignitor and the main relay..
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls.

mine too.
although mine rarely does it.
maybe once every six weeks or so. but always after a short trip, and never after leaving it to cool overnight.
no performance loss or any noticeable indication that anything wrong took place once the car gets running again.

Sounds exactly like my car except after a really long highway trip it would completely die but I had similar simptoms when my fuel pump was on its way out. I would check fuel pressure when it starts doing this. (bring a guage with you or add one to your fuel rail)
and also give the main relay under the dask a whack and see if that cures it. my first guess would be fuel but spark and bad dizzy has potential too. Lack of air (extremely dirty air filter can cause this type off thing too.) clean or change that b*stard while your at it.

Mine Too!
My car was doing that for a little while but i changed a bunch of stuff and it just stopped. I'd check ignition system before fuel. but i tend to blame that first.
now my car is a pain to crank cold. I can stop a hundred times within a few miles and it'll crank right up but if i walk away for a few hours, takes a maybe 3 seconds of cranking to start her up.

what i am saying is a relay is like a light switch when the light is on the conact is close when it is off the the contact is open. so if the car is off and you know the relay is good they it is the wires that feed the relay is where your problem will be in the ignition or ecu as for the others in this forum i would start to look at your main relay it sounds like the conact getts suck closed allowing power to go to your fuel pump which will flood your motor causing the problem people are having in this thread.
