That is normal. It may sound worse if the throttle blade is sludged up, get a can of throttle valve cleaner and clean the throttle valve blade and wip out the intake throttle bore with a soft rag..

SOURCE: 1996 tahoe wont start

There should be a 2 second prime by the fuel pump. This prime by the fuel pump is standard for GM vehicles, and if it is not present a hard start is encountered. Turn the ignition to the run position and listen for the fuel pump operation. You may have to have an assistant listen at the fuel filler by installing a long slender funnel into the fuel inlet to the tank, remove the gas cap and insert the funnel, listen at the large end of the funnel to see if the pump can be heard running. Using the funnel acts like a megaphone and makes it easier to hear the pump. If the pump runs for 2 seconds after you turn the key to the run position (DO NOT attempt to start the engine during this test) and the engine doesn't start due to lack of fuel, check for an obstructed fuel filter. (Just change it, it's probably overdue for service anyway since everyone thinks it get changed during oil changes, but never really does.) If the pump doesn't run during prime interval, the computer may not be turning on the fuel pump relay, or the relay is defective. To check the relay, use another of the relays in the power distribution box to substitute for the suspect fuel pump relay and retest. Be sure to wait at least 30 seconds between key cycles since some systems have a delay timer built in to keep the pump from over running. Be sure the relay you sub into the fuel pump socket is identical to the one you remove and properly oriented in the socket. The engine will run following your manual prime because an additional set of contacts in the oil pressure switch will power up the fuel pump relay once proper oil pressure is achieved by an idling engine. If you find that the relay is not defective, but doesn't provide a priming impulse, the engine computer may have failed. DO NOT use a conventional test light with a filament type bulb to check any of the computer circuits that drive the fuel pump relay, or any other computer controlled circuits on an automobile ( or pickup) The driver circuits in a vehicle computer can be blow-out by over-current when using a conventional test light. You can use a high-impedance DVOM for testing safely.

it is not the regulator if it has 40 lbs of pressure try to pinch off the return line and if pressure drops quickly it is either the check valve in the pump or the rubber seal between the pump and the sending unit

Turn key forward listen for the fuel pump to pressurize if you don't here anything then your fuel pump needs replaced and it's in the tank.

Hard to start cold but once running is ok

I believe you have a throtle body correct? IF so you have poor fuel pressure, plugged filter of injector.If by some miracle you have a carberated engine the the fuel is leaking from the bowl. Get a carb rebuild kit.

1994 Ford Probe GT - Uncontrollable Revving

ok, this is simple to do but I would get the Chilton for your car so you can have pictures of what to do. You can get the chilton at the parts store, or the library. It sounds like a throtle body sensor or the throtle body itself, but could also be your air idle control sensor. go down and buy some mass air flow sensor cleaner and a BIG can of carb cleaner. First clean the mass air flow sensor neer the air filter. then remove the throtle body it is held in by 4 botls and you may need a new gasket, NO GASKET GLUE. Now take that big old can of carb cleaner and start cleaning in and out. also down into manifold. clean everything. Now put it back together, remember 4 bolts and no gasket glue. if the problem continues replace the throtle body sensor. and then the idle air intake. It will be cheaper to take it into the part store and have them put it on the computer. They can often tell you what sensor it is ahead of all this but don't let this stop you from cleaning out the throtle body, it will make your car run better and longer.

Car running problem

Ok Slow deceleration rev responce was part of the ECU software to keep the emissions down ,however if this has only just started you can try to reset the IAC valve ,the procedure is as follows.

Turn ignition key on ,unplug the IAC valve ,turn the key off ,replug the IAC valve. do this 3-4 times .Then start the engine while holding the gas pedal to 2000 rpm ,then slowley let the go of the gas pedal till the engine idles .

The IAC valve is located on the throtle body and has 4 wires to it.

Sometimes the throtle body needs to be cleaned and then reset.
