Then up and down before. now it just cut out once warm up. I have to keep my foot on the gas pedle to keep engine on once I get it started. It will take a few crank to get it to start. Also I notice it will take a lot of battery life to crank it so battery keep going flat. Report
December 1, 201114 yr comment_569109 Hunting is caused by a cooling system problem where the water doesn't always meet the wax pellet under the intake manifold, if it has an issue with the cooling system then it will run rich, also the temp sender for the dash is on the water outlet (top hose), have you checked to see if there is sufficient water in the system? Might also pay to check you TPS settings. Report

Might also pay to check you TPS settings. I will check it all over again. I forget to mention that I am using the 4afe radiator and fan that stays on once the key is turn to on position this why my battery keep going flat. It doesn't hunt anymore its just cut out once the engine get warm up. Report
