Hey everyone! I just got an 88 Fox Body from another TR member. The question I have is this: on the first cold start of the day (usually on a cold morning) the vehicle will crank up and then die right out. I can do this several times with no success in staying running. What I have to do is treat it as if it has a cold carburator. I crank it up and give it gas, and when it starts I have to work the throttle to keep it BARELY running. Then after a few seconds (30 or so) it will idle great.... Any Ideas?!

Thanks TR!

Just stuffed my mouth with delicious food Bump

 

Any mods?

 

is it conveted to mass air or speed density?

 

Before you crank it, pump the gas a few times....

 

No modifications...
It hasn't been converted at all...
And it's not carburated so I wouldn't think that'd do anything...

 

Phewf! I was hoping you might get a chuckle out of that....

 

LoL Yes... I was hoping that you were kidding ... Any other ideas though?

 

Big Vacuum Leak Somewhere?

 

Ive never had a fox that started up and stayed on with out a little help on a cold start, especially when it was cold outside. all fi cars too.
