Cold starting

Anyone with a high lift cam have a problem
with their idle after cold starting, giving it the gas to keep the Rev's up for about two or three minutes. And after this everything is normal?? This happens only in cooler weather.

If you have a tpi engine, I would try testing the cold start valve on the passenger side of the engine. It would be located under a single tube inbetween the runners on the passenger side of the engine. It will have a connector that looks like an injector connector. Not for sure how to test it, problably with an volt/ohm meter. Dont know what the specs are
