when i turn the key it starts but for the first about 10 seconds it sounds as if it is starved for fuel and runs rough. Sometimes it dies on the first start but usually will stay started on the second try. I'm really clueless! Just put in a new starter, New plug n Wires. New water pump, fuel pump. Used mass air flow sensor and a couple of other sensors a mechanic replaced! Some help would be Much appreciated! Thanks :)
