I am chasing an idle problem. The car starts easily, idles well for about 10 seconds, and then dies. There are no codes at all. I have cleaned the throttle body and there are no big vacuum leaks. The ignition system appears fine. This is leading me to the fuel system, but where do I start? The injectors were cleaned a couple of months ago. If the fuel pumps were the problem, would the car even start and idle smoothly? I am stumped - thanks for any suggestions.
