I had a similar problem. I had the car towed to the dealer, they replaced the spark plugs and said that I wasn't starting the car properly?!! If you check some other posts you will find others that have had the same thing happen. The general advice is never give the car gas when starting and don't start the car and then shut it off right away, ie moving it in the driveway. Something about too much gas fouling out the spark plugs. Sounds crazy but I haven't had that problem since. Try it before replacing alot of parts. Jim.
