Default 1997 SL2, tough start, rough idle, stalls.

Hello Everyone,


I was wondering if anyone can help us on this one. This has been
going on for years. Every so often, my saturn will not start at
first. Cranks, first but fails to continue running. After a few
attempts, it then starts but runs rough and idles like crap. Have to
hold the gas pedal to keep if from stalling.

I've been back and forth to the dealer for YEARS now with this, but
they can't find what causes it. The find the code for the actual
stall, but not for the cause. The car wasn't on the fuel pump recall,
or anyother lists ( which btw scares me from ever buying another
saturn, if this saturn is the best they made, oh doomed). The car
only intermittently does this, maybe 2-3 times a year, but at the
worst times. Like wifey driving at night, on very-very cold days, or
very very hot days.

Any suggestions on how to 'fix' this problem?

thanks

tom
