I was wondering if anyone else has experienced the problem of after starting up your Titan does it seem to choke itself out? I mean you crank it. It starts up good but no more than 2 seconds after it cranks it dies down and almost quits (sometimes it does) but then catches back on and idles like normal. It just started doing this about 8K or 9K miles ago. Do ya'll reckon that the K&N drop in would have anything to do with it? Or maybe my exhaust? I didn't have any problems like this until I had the upgrades put on. Any help or feedback will be appreciated. Hope all of you have a very Merry Christmas and a drunken New Year.

i have a cold air intake and exhaust but have never had any problems like the one you have described. But how often does it do this and how long?

Not too often. Maybe once or twice a month. And for maybe 2 seconds.

Well from what others have been saying around here, could be a dirty fuel injector or misfiring spark plug. Or could be a bad plug wire. My 4 wheeler does that, so I have to choke it in order for it to turn over sometimes. But it isn't a constant occuring thing so, I couldn't say.

Well I check the MAF sensor yesterday and no oil build-up on the sensor. I'm puzzled now.
