I have the same problem, but its because Im using the inproper ECU with my KLZE.

Maybe its ur TPS? or a Temp sensor... I have no clue...

At start huh, hmmm....thats gotta be a firing prob more less electrical...most sensors don't start working until they reach a certain Temp....It sounds as if your air fuel ratio is a lil wack though it seems...But too little info , do a lil more research on your car and if you notice any changes post them ,that would help out a lot...but no clue otherwise
Ferrari Red w/silver Metallic 92' Mx-3 GsR: Blown 5 Built motors from my past project and am going to N/A for a while as I get use to Megasquirt for proper tuning then may boost....TT setups have too much lag and too low of a power output for the rpm range i sought....Single is better and may do that in future...New project is custom Alum Mani/ with 3-4" runners...NO ?'s about my previous setup I don't want anyone to waste as Much $$$$$$ as I did...listen to BabyBlue and the those guys and go with thier F/I setups
