Well, now I have a new symptom, and until I figure it out, my SVX will sit in the garage.

I got to leave work early last night - 1:30AM - and I started the car. Or at least I tried to. It was very hard to start and then it sputtered and died. But before it died it made this horrible whining/moaning sound that kept up after it died. I hit start again and it fired right up. A couple seconds after it started, the noise went away.

It drove fine on the way home, but I swear the whistling noise it makes under light throttle was more pronounced. Noboby's ever been able to explain that one to me, either.
Was it foggy or humid outside? You may have a cracked air hose somewhere. There are tons of hoses under the manifold running every which way. If one is cracked, you could be sucking air.
