Engine starting problem...PLEASE HELP
Engine starting problem...PLEASE HELP
Hey...any help would be appretiated.
Issue -
For sometime now, when I start the car...the engine starts fine but all of a sudden while in the garage...warming up, the engine stops!
Then when I try to start again, the car dosent start....just the clicking sound.
But then when I take the key out and try again, it starts....
Is this a starter issue or something else? If its a starter issue...then why would the engine stop while in idle mode.
The car now has about 103,000 miles. Did anyone else experience this? Please let me know....thanks.
And how much would the fix cost if you guys know what the fix might be.
THanks.

Throttle body cleaning is necessary.
You are supposed to do it everytime you change your air filter.
When was the last time you changed your air filter anyway??
Buy the throttle body cleaner, $1
Go to this awesome website:
http://www.motorvate.ca/
click on engine, click on throttle clean.
Just clean the edges of the butterfly plate, don't spray too much into inside. A very easy 30 minute or less job.
I used to have the same problem, but now, no more.

The reason
The reason the car stops while idling is that not enough air is being sucked in due to the gunk that stick to the butterfly plate of the throttle body.
No air, no combustion, engine stalling out.
Next time starting, turn the key while flooring gas, then keep your RPM above 2000 by slightly pushing gas for about 6-7 seconds.
This will do for as of right now, but you should really do throttle body cleaning.

Check your battery terminals, make sure there's no corrosion on them.
Your 95 is prone to starter problems, click click click and no crank would be the starter relay or the sterted itself acting up.
