    Need a bit of advice.

    So today i woke up in the morning and i had to run to the store so i go to start my car and it just starts and dies. I tried a few times and it still kept dying. So i checked my fuses, Disconnected/reconnected my air sensor and disconnected/checked/reconnected my sparkplug coils just to see if all is well. I was stumped and i said I'd try one more time. So i go to turn it over and it starts fine and stays alive. I went to the store and back fine and it still starts. Wtf happened... Mind you my cold start valve has been on its way to death, because it takes my car about 3 to 4 seconds to start when it's cold outside. Can the CSV be that waffleswaffleswaffleswafflesed where it'll stall the car?

    This could be any of a number of things, with intake leaks at the top of the list. The first action should be a smoke tests to find any and repairs as indicated.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
