Consumer Description

AFTER CAR SITS FOR SEVERAL DAYS ENGINE WILL IDLE VERY ROUGHLY UPON STARTING FOR ALMOST ONE MINUTE. IDLE IS SO ROUGH THAT I THOUGHT THE ENGINE MOUNTS WOULD BREAK AND CREATES A VERY 4 LOUD RATTLING SOUND. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES, TWO AFTER SITTING FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND ONCE AFTER JUST SITTING OVERNIGHT. *TR
