s13 ka24e dies every time i start it!

[eliminator024]

Hi I have a 1990 s13 for some reason every time I start my car the idle is horable I have to give it gas so it wont die at idle. but once the engine is warmed up it idles just fine, but also when im driveing usually around the 2000-3000 rpm area it lags out when I step on it like my car jerks as if im running out of gas, im not sure if the two problems are related but I need help fast this is my daily driver so I am driving it this way hopefully I don't mess anything up......could it be a vacume problem and if so can I get some info or a link of how to delete all of the vacume but the egr if possible, I haven't been able to find any guides that I could understand for the ka24e....
thanks any help is appreciated

This same exact thing was happening to my RX-7.
Once turns out that it wasn't getting enough fuel. And when I say same exact thing I mean same exact thing lol. Wouldn't stay on unless I was on the throttle. Once warmed up it was fine but would only go to like 3000 and basically die out and once I get off the gas its fine.

What I ended up doing was testing for fuel pressure and volume. Sure enough the pump wasn't putting out what it should. Also my injectors were dirty so I sent them away to be cleaned and flow test.

Once I got them back and swapped a new pump in there she roared to life lol.

All was well after that. Has your car been sitting for any period of time?

I would definately check for fuel pressure and volume.
