I need help. When i go to start the car, it has a hard time starting. It slowly winds up and then after 4 more cranks finaly starts, but then if i dont give it any gas it will die. Its like i have to keep in at high revs to keep it from dying. Is it electrical ? or is it the MAF? I duno.

it can be either on your intake box, there are hoses giving off air and if one of them is bad, it just dies out. if the maf is bad, you can still drive around, but you cant go passed 3k rpm.
i would suggest to take it to a place to get it taken care of.
