Stall Problem

Stall Problem

I have a problem where my '98 SE stalls, or I should I say, never really starts. It only happened a couple of times when it was cold. You turn the key, the engine turns and starts but it immediately stalls out. The dealer said that it could be becasue the fuel tank was low or maybe the injectors need cleaning.

I had a '93 chevy for 8 years and never once did I have the injectors cleaned and never had such a problem even with next to no gas.

Anyone experience this problem?

Thanks!

honestly the throttle body wont effect this. I cleaned my throttle body and she still stalls out too when its really cold out. But once i drive it around for the day it wont happen again.
I think i has to do with the fuel system or maybe a bad sensor somehwere. I know my kock sensor is shot so im gonna try that and see what happens.
