cool weather hard start

1998 24 valve started fine until last week. after start up engine idle was erratic but cleared up after a few minutes. temp dropped below 50 this week and now it runs for a minute and stalls. replaced lift pump and filter which were ok.bleed injectors and it will sputter and stop. any suggestions?

First thing I'd do is check for codes.

Do you have an aftermarket box installed? Like an Edge EZ or Comp? If so, disconnect it and see if the problem continues.

Well, if your intake heater isn't working, that could easily explain what's going on. Try replacing your solenoids--I bet that'll fix things.

I picked up my last set at Geno's Garage: http://www.genosgarage.com
