Erm.. yes it does. I forgot about that. :/
Before you drive anymore do this.
Turn the ignition to on, (engine off)
Get under the hood and move the throttle plate all the way open and hold
it there for a few seconds then slowly cycle it between full closed and full
open about four times. Then get in and turn the ignition off. Then start.
