Diagnosing a problem

I had the same issue with my Honda Oddysey (not my Supra) and the only fix I found was a fuel system cleaning (which I did myself). The cleaner is about 65.00 and I can't recall the name, but it wasn't off the shelf. The service manager sold it to me from their Honda stock (it's generally a thing that most people wouldnt see). I ran it thru my fuel system and the problem was gone immediately. This stuff was so strong, it recommends you dont run it thru the fuel system more than once per year.

Now. saying that... That was my problem and solution. It may have nothing to do with your car. The guy who sold me the fuel system cleaner explained that the "supermarket" and service station fuel injector cleaners are a waste of money. The real way to clean your fuel system is at a licensed mechanical facility and costs about 150-250 to do correctly.

Just a thought to see if it points in the right direction.
