Are you tuned at all?
It may also be a dirty throttle body, maf sensor, or an issue with your cold start warm up cycle.

Just checking, don't want to have to take my mount off. I cross threaded the **** out of one of the bolts so I'd have to get a whole new mounting bracket. Howd you get your belt on?

Not tuned at all, and cleaned my TB a few months ago when it first started. It hasn't done it recently, only when the temperature drops overnight

If you have an evap purge solenoid on the intake manifold, that could also be acting up. When mine went out the first time the car had issues starting in the colder temps. Does it have any start-up trouble after getting gas?
You could have also gotten some bad gas at some point as well.

Nope, it's a very rare occasion thing, only in the morning and only when the temP dropped dramatically overnight.

Side note, gonna have an Injen CAI and a 2.4 style intake mani for sale here in the next few weeks if anyone is interested

Saw an HHR "SS" at McDonalds today. It looks like he had used the S's off of something like a Silverado or Sierra, definitely not the Chevy SS badge, which where on crooked on the opposite side of where it said "HHR LT" on the right side, as well as the sides of the car. Winning? lol, wish I got a picture

Thanks, its been mine since i turned 16 in 2005. Of course its a v8, v6's are lame lol. Right now its in the shop, getting set up for bracket racing. Just a hold over til i can find the right race car, then she becomes a weekend cruiser that'll be built one day. I'm pretty excited, i've been cutting .00 - .05 lights in my cobalt so in an automatic it should be even more deadly. And before anyone says it, yes daddy bought it for me, but i made monthly payments on it /storytime lol

Does anyone know someone who can install my clutch without me paying the ridiculous install charge from a dealership?

ZZP I found to be quite fair, plus they've done a million of them, only people I'd trust.

Any Michigan LNF's with stock suspension interested in my Pedder's XA coilovers PM me, I will need your stock suspension plus cash. If you have springs I will discount the cash side.

If I get a remote tune file from a member on here for HPT, how would I get it flashed over? Would any HPT cable work, or would I need one unlocked for my year/vin?

You need the program and it has to be unlocked specifically for your car or the year model of your car.
