So the past couple mornings when I have been leaving for work (4:30am) I have been getting a little low RPMS sputter after it cranks over.
At first I thought it was the starter going out, but no. IT cranks over fine, no starter whine/hesitation. After it fires over the RPM's stay rather low (5-600) until I give it a tap of the gas then fire right upto 1000-1100 until it warms up. Once again, mianly only when it is cold.
To me it almost seems like a fuel delivery problem. Anyone have any thoughts?
I'll try and get a video of it for you guys to see on my next cold startup.
