Running out of ideas! Cold start issue
Running out of ideas! Cold start issue
Was told it has a new fuel pump. I replaced the fuel pressure regulator, replaced the idle air control valve. Adjusted the throttle position sensor. New starter. Run nothing but 93 octane. What else can it be? Cranks and cranks for about a minute then fires up. Then it's fine all day except at a light in drive the idle starts jumping around. Thoughts?

Re: Running out of ideas! Cold start issue
If you changed the IAC, it would be a good idea to follow this procedure to a T.

Also, what year,engine,TPI,TBI....what. What is your fuel pressure at idle? Cold Start Injector Switch and Coolant Temp Switch could play a role in this. Does it start when warm?
ATM, to many variables
