OP 2000SVT_dup2 Newbie 2 Joined: Aug 2002 Posts: 2	I am having trouble starting my 2000 SVT. It will crank and fire, but something won't let it idle. It goes from 2500 rpm to 0 without hesitation. What's wierd is I can keep it going by revving it and by the time I get to work (45 mins) it will idle fine. I've read all the info on "throttle hang" but this sounds like a completely different animal. When I searched for this in the archives I found some info about fuel pumps, but this seems more like some sensor issue. Any ideas? Thanks
