Hello All: Thank you for all your help thus far. Here's the latest: When I pour gas into the throttle the car will run for about 15 seconds, or until the fuel burns off. I am wondering if the next step would involve cleaning my fuel injectors, or replacing the fuel filter. The car has only 1753 miles on it, so I am assuming that a lot of gunk deposited on the injector heads and perhaps that's what causing the problem. Also I removed the spark plugs and they have carbon deposits on them, indicating a rich fuel / air mixture. Am I on the right track? What is my next step?
