Starting/Stalling Problems

[Ripper]

I posted a similar topic about a month ago without getting many replies. My car would struggle starting up in the mornings (it seemed that way). One morning it took about 20 tries before starting. I took it to the dealer. They said it was a loose ground wire from the fuel pump. Okay, go to pick up the car and it won't start (afternoon now, I'm surprised). Walk into the service dept and tell them the car won't start. Hmmm, very puzzling. It turns out the car wasn't getting any fuel due to the throttle valve assembly(?) being jammed closed. It was replaced and the car fired right up. The tech who worked on the car said they've had trouble with this part recently.
