#58559, "Car Runs Rough When Cold ( First crank )"


          

when i first turn on my car say in the morning before school, after its been sitting all night, ill crank it up, itll drop rpm to about like 400-600 rpm and sputter, sometimes itll cach back up and go to normal ( 1000 ) or sometimes it will shut off, and ill just crank it up again and itll run fine when it warms up, ne one know whats going on ? my friend said it could b a stuck injector but iuno to much about fuel tunning

There's a number of sensors that "could" be staring to go on you... for hot/cold problems I would start with coolant temp sensor. IAC could be acting up as well...



15.9 @ 86.7mph

Smooth idle? We don't need no stinking smooth idle.

take off your intake pipe to your intake (whether u have CAI or intercooler pipes) get some carb/choke cleaner and spray it into and on the butterfly plate in the intake. make sure u get that little hole in the TB that goes to the IAC. just do a basic tb service, it takes 5 mins and you will idle stronger. on another note, the 420a (as with most engines) runs rich at startup to get the engine up to operating temperatures quicker.

Mine does this too, but it also does it if I go into somewhere for an hour or so and come back out, sometimes it doesn't do it at all. It's very strange, plugs are new, and I just replaced one of the problems that I thought was causing it, now I'm wondering what else it could be.

Good Luck
