OK I have a 1992 VR-4. Sometimes when i start it, it idles low, sputters, and seems like its going to die and sometimes it does. When i try to rev it it does a little but its barely any response. And it seems like its gurgling. But it doesn't do it every time I start it. I've changed the clutch, spark plugs, wires, ignition coils, battery terminals, and my Caps. Any advice at all would be helpful.

Fuel filter is new. And if it was that idle stepper motor wouldn't it do it all the time? Not just at start-up?

I have the same thing on my soarer, but it goes away and sometimes stops, usually happens alot when i discharge the battery a lot (leave the lights/stereo for a long time )
Ones i pulled the throttle cable a few times and it died then the other day i did it again and it was fine.....
