Subject:cold Stall
From:Jere Hawn

Hi all,

I recently replace the temp sensor which fixed the problem but now that it
is getting colder (dew on the ground almost frost) the first start in the
morning or after it has cooled to ambient it stalls immediately after I
start it unless I use the peddle and add gas.  The stall isn't a cough,
sputter, and chock type stall it is like turning the key off kind of stall
(and no I didn't bump the key).  After about a quarter mile it act normal
for a cold engine.  Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
Jere
