    My 2004 pontiac grand prix requires me to tap the gas pedal at least once in order to get it to turn over in the morning or after sitting for some hours. it only starts right up when has recently been cut off or maybe if it is warm. I have live here in michigan.


    Can someone please tell me what to do to rectify this problem. its been doing this since i purchased it about 4 years ago.

    Remove the engine cover and leave it off. Done.
