Hard Sarting when engine warm Sign In
I have a 1996 Chevy Tahoe (5.7 Liter vortec)with 188K miles. I starts fine first thing in the morning but once the engine is warm I have to give it some gas and occasionally it kinda loads up on fuel and then ignites, sometimes with smoke in the engine area. I recently tuned it up, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, air filter. I also cleaned the intake area around the choke which wasn't too bad. I now have a tank full of injector cleaner to see if that may help, although I've done this before. Any advise would be much appreciated. Thanks

Your car doesn't have a choke, it's fuel injected.

Is the check engine light coming on at all?

Then you're going to need someone knowledgeable to analyze the the sensor data with a scan tool and look for something out of place.
