Sounds to me like a fuel delivery issue. Things like fuel filter fuel pump and fuel lines need to be checked.

Hello Vesa,

Could be fuel (pump*) related.
Fuel Pump Fuse (bad connections)
Fuel Filter
Tank venting
Hole in Fuel Line (in the tank)
*Replace System and Starter Relays (easiest to do yourself) and test.

In addition to the fuel filter, which probably is due for a change depending on mileage/kilometers or a hole in the internal tank fuel line, it could very well be the fuel line from the tank to the throttle body. If it shows wear like the photo below, on the fitting that goes into the tank, replace it as it is shutting off the fuel flow through the one way valve mounted at the tank.

Clean your IAC. 07's are well known for this fouling up. Remove your air breather and have a look in the throat of the fuel injection unit. Spray some MAP sensor cleaner in the little port while cycling the ignition on and off. I do mine twice a year.
