Rough start?? Fine now...

[dmanmccann]

Ok my driveway is straight downhill then curves out flat into the garage...MY g/f parks in the garage and i park just behind the garage door...its just flat enough formy truck to sit level.....Welll friday i crunk my truck to back it up the hill , but didnt turn the ignition long enough and it choked, then i turned it again and i fired right up....

I let my g/f pull her car out and pulled into the garage, i thought i pulled up far enough but the gargae door wouldnt shut...I crunk my truck up just for like 2 sec to back it up about 2 inches.....

Well yesterday i backed my truck out and WHEN I STARTED IT UP IT WAS SHAKING LIKE A SOME BITCH.....I didnt know what to do. so i cut it off and started it up, again it idled rough...Well i gunned it up my steep driveway and onto the road above...once i did that its fine now...no more rough idle???

Anyone know why it wouldad done that...Kinda acted like it was partially flooded but i dont beleive EFI cat be flooded..

that rough idle sounds like a misfire. Mine does the same thing every so often, on every startup, for one day, then it quits for a month or two then its Rinse, Wash, Repeat.

Usually it'll startup fine, then start missing like nuts, and as soon as I move FORWARD, it'll quit and run fine after that.

I'm not sure what causes it yet, I only know that its been happening to me off and on for more than two years now... doesn't seem to hurt anything, its just really annoying.
