I have a 2000 chrysler town and country i half to hold the gas pedal down for it to start and the cadlac converter turns bright red whats it problem

Check your engine codes. You may have a bad pedal sensor that is not sending the information to the throttle sensor.

could the throttle sensor under pedal or look on motor for problems with cable

P0123 Code - Throttle Position Sensor/Switch A Circuit High

It means the throttle position sensor is open. ( there is no connection ) when you get a flooded engine you push the throttle all the way down and hold it until the engine starts. this is called clear flood. when you do this there is no gas going in the engine so it can clear it's self out and start. so if you have an open tps there is no gas to start the engine. note before you buy unplug and replug several times in case you just have a bad connection.

Hope this helps.

If the fuel pressure is normal, it could be a sticking idle air control valve.

crank it and hold the gas for about 5 min then eventually the computer will jump on

Acce

fuel pump and check the transmission as well

front of motor lower end just follow from battery down the wire is red there should be 3 bolts holding it on

U NEED TO BLEED THE BRAKES USING A SPECIAL TOOL THAT HOLDS THE ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVES OPEN, ANY GOOD BRAKE SHOP WILL HAVE THE TOOL OR THE DEALER, SORRY BUT THAT IS THE WAY IT HAS TO BE DONE.

HAVE SOMEONE EXTRACT THE CODE FROM THE CAR'S COMPUTER. IF THERE IS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON THEN THE PCM HAS A CODE STORED ON IT. IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE A THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR, BUT JUST CHECK THE CODE TO BE SURE. SOME OF THESE CAN ALSO HAVE A BAD IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE. I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU TO FIND THE PROBLEM. PLEASE KEEP ME POSTED, THANKS FOR USING FIX-YA. GOOD LUCK
