Cold start, goes dead, rough idle cold

[jamluis]

My 98 SOHC Exp engine starts and immediately goes dead when cold. Slight acceleration keeps it running but runs real rough. Does ok when warmed up, except idles real low. Will stall when slowing down at times. Any suggestions?

Do a search for it.

Change your lower Intake manifold gaskets, mine done that and was perfect afterwards.

There is a recall on these, if you X has less than 72k on it Ford will pay.
