    I just bought a 2000 Grand Prix last night. It drives fine but this morning, and ever since, it will stall when as soon as I start it. It has been doing this a couple of times in a row and then it will stay started, and it hasn't stalled while I am driving. There is no check engine light. What could be causing it?

    Hard to say.

    You could try cleaning the MAF sensor and the throttle body assembly along with the Idle Air control valve.

    I would start there and then see if it continues.

    low fuel pressure?...Try priming it a few times next time it does it, then crank it over to see if it starts right up.
