Trying to work through some issues with a newly acquired vehicle. Not sure if these are connected, but here it goes: Car idles poorly for the first 30 seconds, or so, when started cold. Engine "misses/bogs" when pedal is pressed -again, only for the first few seconds. Gas mileage is poor - maybe in the 12-15 MPG range. Haven't had it long enough to collect much data. There is a faint fuel oder when driving. No visible leaks detected. Not pulling any error codes. Thinking it might just need a tuneup, which we will be doing this weekend. Any other thoughts?
