Have to press accelerator to start my '99 ES 300 - 10/9/2007 12:42:17 PM    dbloese   Posts: 2 Joined: 10/9/2007 Status: offline     When I start my '99 ES 300, sometimes I have to push the accelerator and then turn the key to get it to start.  Does anyone know what is wrong and how to fix it?  There is no check engine light on.  Thanks.
