Repost- 91 740 Cold Start Problems

Dear Brickboard,

I'm reposting this message from last night because I didn't get any responses. Any help would be greatly appreciated! -Kevin

Dear Brickboarders,

I have a ’91 740 that runs very poorly on cold starts below 30 F for 10-30 seconds. It’s almost like it’s misfiring, but afterwards it will idle and run fine. Pushing the throttle during this time makes no difference. Recently it has been occasionally stalling on cold starts too.

If it stalls, it then takes 2-3 times as much cranking to turn over, and today I let go of the key before it caught and then it wouldn’t start at all! Fortunately it started fine later, but I need to fix it!

It has new cap/rotor/wires, TB is clean, so what else should I be looking for? It also has a 2-3-2 code (fuel trim) but this doesn’t light up the check engine light. Help?

-Kevin
