My Olds finally started acting up yesterday and i have no idea wtf it could be. You start it up when its cold and it runs great, you can drive it for a long time that way. But, when you shut it off and restart it runs all fucked up kinda like its starving for gas. So it only acts up if you start it when its warm. I have no idea on this one. I was thinking a bad sensor but its not giving me a check engine light. Any help would be appreciated. ---

> [@pewterss](#): > > is there a mass air or mogle under coils pacs! i’ll have to check when im over at my parents. and wtf is a mogle. and now that i think about it i dont think it has mass air but i’ll check when im over there to be sure. its so weird. you start it up cold and the thing will run grat until you turn it off. when you go to start it up when its warm it misses and backfires. i’ll check on the mass air and the mogle. ---
