Engine Sputters and RPM Drops When Cranking
The vehicle owner reported that at startup when cranking the engine, the vehicle sputtered and the RPM dropped, making it feel like the vehicle was going to stall.
The technician found that the throttle body was dirty. At our Sebring shop, the team cleaned and serviced it with a BG Platinum Fuel Service, replaced fuel injector #6 (the work order called for replacing the spark plugs at the same time), and replaced the engine air filter element.
