died twice on startup tonight

So, this happens from time to time. I'll start up the hoe, and she'll die within a second. Again, start her up, she'll flat line. But today was a different story.....


About 4 hours ago I left for a friends house. Started her up, she died twice, I was thinking no biggy. Then I drove down the street, and the handling felt pretty damn light. I proceeded to get onto the main street, and pushed the gas as I normally would do, and she hauled some serious ass. I pulled over to let it sink in, then, again, I accelerated, felt like someone installed a blower on it without me knowing.

I'm heading to my pops place first thing in the morning to have this thing diagnosed.

Any comments?

Yea I'm guessing it is, it's been throwing lots of problems my way. I changed the fuel filter today, doing the fuel pump as soon as I can.

i'd guess some sort of throttle sensor, but i'm no mechanic lol
atleast for that problem. as for the buggy starts, hmmm some sort of idle sensor (or the sensors that determine cold starts from warm)?
