03 Cadillac deville... Problems starting

When the car is cold or hasn't been started over night you have to give it a little gas to keep it running for a minute or two... After that it runs fine and will start every time no problem once u drive it for a little while... Runs like a dream... Doesn't sputter no misfire...This is the only problem.. No check engine light

Another thought.
Try cycling the ignition switch several times on and off before you crank it, see if it helps? If it does, check for fuel issue. Just a thought. Sometimes when vehicle sits for a while, the fuel pressure drains back.

Fault codes will reveal a problem ambient air temp or atmospheric pressure sensor(BARO) fault
these units report to the ECM so that the correct air/fuel ratio can be obtained
The same as pulling on the old choke

TPS throttle position sensor needs cleaning or replacment. or if you run the tank low on fuel you might be needing to replace fuel pump and filter.

If you like go ahead and let someone sell and replace your transmission but here is my suggestion! Check around and see if you can find a minor vacuum leak! This can simply be the big round hose that goes from the fuel injection to the power brake hub! This is normally a push in connector which has about a 1/2 inch hose clamped on it! If there is any kink or the connector is not in correctly a leak will occur and the transmission will shift rough as though you will be thrown out of the vehicle! Try unplugging this connector and plug it back in hard and straight and maybe you will be lucky and fix your problem. If the vacuum is correct your transmission will shift better than you have ever experienced!

I have an 88 Cadillac Deville. 2 months ago I had a new fuel pump put in. It's making a whining noise and the car keeps dying and sputtering. What else could be the problem to make the pump go out?

Car wanting to die out on stop n go

Try changing the temperature sending unit. This regulates the cold start mode and it appears it's still in cold start mode and still feeding it too much fuel, causing a flooding condition and making it die at stops. When you depress throttle to go, it's still getting too much fuel and wants to bog and die on take-off.

She almost starts, then dies.

No on the question about the starter being the cause.
You said you poured gas in - I assume you mean in the tank.
If it sounds like it wants to start we will assume the plugs are getting spark from the dist cap. If the pump is failing, you may not have enough fuel pressure.
I would either check fuel pressure or pour some fuel into the throttle body and try it. You could also use carb cleaner in a spray can.
You need to figure out if it is a fuel or ignition problem to proceed.

1995 cadillac deville vacuum hose diagram

I have a 1995 Cadillac Deville. The car runs great. When Its cold. As soon as it gets hot, if you turn it off it won't start. And when it does start is has no power and spits and sputters to the point where you have to lay on the gas to keep it running. My husband and I have done everything imaginable to this car and it will run great for a day or two then we are right back to square one. Do you have any idea what the problem could be? Please help/
