Hesitation when cold

Yeah the car is sold... just waiting for the other guy to be free to transfer the ownership and stuff.

Anyways... since I'm still driving it, albeit very stock, it hesitates really badly when its cold. This started happening after I blew the head gasket and had it fixed. Any ideas?

Intake air temp sensor?
Engine coolant temp sensor?
Idle air control solenoid?
Dirty or clogged EGR valve?

Can you get any engine codes to give you a clue?

No codes. Car runs perfectly after it warms up, full power through the whole rev range, its just when its cold.

If, by "hesitate" you mean that it shifts later, it could be the outside temperature. The transmission oil is cold and it doesn't shift as soon. I don't think there is a fix, as such.

no its not that, by hesitation I mean it has no power, does not rev, and the car slightly studders.

The car is gone now.... nothing I can do anymore. No more Camry.

Sounds like a somewhat normal problem for an older car. My car runs like crap too when it's cold, so I always let it warm up past the C hash.
