Default Start up and die

When I start up my car it almost imediately dies, after sitting for a bit. If I rev it as it starts it will be fine. Anyone have some clues and what to do?

Same problem here, tried replacing the spark plugs, coilpacks and cleaning the MAF sensor. I guess its the starter going, just not sure.

I don't think so. I have checked through the intake. And, if I give a bit ofgas at start,it will be fine.

mine ended up being a dirty throttle body. Have it cleaned and see if that helps.

check for fault codes because it could be many things air leaks is a good start and check for bad vacuum lines
