when i start my car in the mornings it starts fine

but later in the day when its hotter and i start the car it dips down to like 200 then back up to about 1000.

what could make it start rough when its WARM

most the posts about rough starts are for when its COLD, but my car starts fine when its cold

the only thing i can think of is to clean my filter

i have a ka24de and the only engine mod is the intake

I'm also having the same problem...i've had it before too and fixed it for a couple weeks by replacing the thermostat. After doing some research i found out that the water temperature sensor could have gone bad and in doing so could have thrown the tps threw a loop.

note: my car only does this if the engine is warmed up. outside temp. really doesnt matter.
