hi everyone,

nothing major really but 90 percent of the time to start the car i have to slightly depress the accelerator pedal. sometimes it starts fine, sometimes it just about starts without the pedal but most of the time it needs a little squeeze.

anybody got any ideas??

its not the throttle position sensor either..

Just a guess but your fuel pump could be on it's way out or a filter could be blocked
