Hi i need your help for a cold start problem.
my truck is a 97 2.3l dual coil packs.
the truck starts just fine and starts to rev up normally but suddently it stalls before attempting to set and high cold idle. i can keep it running for a while if i hit the gas a little but a few second later its completely stalls just like turning the igniton off.
The problem ocurs only when the truck is cold. If its been sitting in the heated garage the truck starts, rev up and then set an idle and run fine.
when the truck is warm or if its warm outside it runs like a charm.
The weird thing is: if the truck is cold, and after a few attemps to keep it from stalling, i just have to unplug the front coil pack(driver side plugs) and then the truck works perfectly just like magic. (STARTS, rev up, and then set an idle just fine without any hesitation or stall).
when the engine is warm i have to plug back the coil pack because i get a lot of hesitation during acceleration.
all of these sensors are brand new: Map,ect,tps,iac.
sorry for my bad english...i am a french canadian. hope you can understand me well.
any help youd be appreciated
