Subject:91 Westy Runs Rough Cold/Great Warm
From:Mark B. Magee
Date:Wed, 2 Jun 1999 22:21:45 -0500

Volks,
91 Westy has been acting increasingly strange lately on cold startup. It
starts right up and then begins to idle rough very quickly, if it dies
due to bad idling, it is -very- difficult to restart. On last trip I got
by this by running idle up to 3000 RPM until warm, then idles great,
even w A/C on max.
Questions: Is this an ox-sensor or water temp sensor prob? (Which one??)

Anyone got an idea where to start, she runs great after warmed up.
