92 celica, poor cold start

[MSJ113]

hi all, newbi here glad to find ya

11/91 cellica

where would you start looking for a sudden cold start problem? no check engine light, runs fine when warm, doesnt like to idle till full warm...began one morning about a week ago and is no worse or better now than the first day.

seems a bit less dramatic at 23 degrees above than 12 below zero..might be my imagination or just wishfull thinking...

thanx mark

is it just idle surging? mine when it was cold was idle surging until it warmed up then it was fine... if its just surging or even just idling high theres nothing wrong its just cold and warming itsself ip

thanx ximporttuners
no, like starving for fuel, do these have a cold start injector?
not long ago it idled just fine on cold startup..."mom" dont like it this way, and you know when "mom" dont like it ....

maybe ur fuel pump is partially freezing??? injectors freezing up when its cold? do u have to rev it to keep it running?

YES gotta keep yer foot on it, and peddling a bit, and the idle seems low while cold.

try messing with your idle screw located on your throttle body. you may have it to where it idles too slow and when its cold it wants to idle surge causing it to go too low and die
