My rig just recently developed the problem of trying to die when starting from a cold cold start. After that it seems to run and idle just fine.

The IAB and other sensors are not new but don't have many miles on them. So I guess I need to take a look at the IAB anyway as well as the sensor in the coolant tubes to see if they are working properly. Haven't had time to run codes yet but thought I would throw it out here to see what the EFI gurus think?

Mine was doing the same thing for a while. I cleaned the MAF and IAC and it went away.

thanks man for the information. I will give it a try and report back. I actually beleive it may be the K&N filter as its gotten quite dirty and I refuse to clean it. Going to swap it out for a different cloth style air filter.
