hi everyone.
ive been having this problem EVERY winter since ive had my car (4 years now). basically, when i start my car cold (like when i leave for work in the morning), and i dont give it AT LEAST 3-4 minutes to warm up, it will stall on me the moment i hit my gas pedal in drive. it idles at about 1500rpm when i start and slowly drops to about 700-800rpm when its warmed up. every other car in my household i can start up and start driving immediatly. why is it with my mx-3 i have to wait? what could be causing the problem?
thanks in advance!
