Starts up then bogs out and stalls.
Ok heres my problem...
My car bogs out and stalls out right when i start my car up from a "warm start" and let it idle for a second... and the only way i can keep it from doing that is if i feed it a little gas for a couple seconds...
For example..
If i drive my car a couple miles then pull over and turn it off, and then turn it on 10 - 15min later ((or in other words turn it on before the Temp gauge is more then a 1/4 from cold.)) and let it sit and idle for a second it will bog out and stall...
does anyone know what this could be?? and how to fix it??
*NOTE*
This never happens from a cold start...

scion tc cranks then dies
Well, add me to the list of folks with this same trouble with the stupid throttle getting stuck in Scion TCs..AAArrrrggghhhh!!!
I took the throttle out and tried moving the plate but it is stuck closed. I sprayed throttle cleaner inside and it is still stuck.
Problem is I'm a shade tree and I don't know if the plate should move freely with no power applied or not?
I'm so frustrated now, I'm just gonna take it out again and pull the back cover off where I guess all the gears and stuff are and try and manually free it up.
It will take a while. I gotta do all this stuff between school, family, life..
This is a crappy throttle. Too many of us have had the same trouble. I have a 15 year old Saturn and its throttle plate has carbon build up but the daam car still runs. This thing just cranks and dies.Stupid Toyota for not doing a recall and fixing this for free
