It’s been almost three weeks since I finally put my new 93 red 245 on the road. I still haven’t cured the “cold shake”. At first, I try to deny that fact that the shake is just a little bit more than normal yet not a “violent” one. However, it is. It shakes every time I start the engine cold. It vibrates about an inch around. It stops when the temperature reaches half way to the middle. I tried everything I read from the previous posts and the FAQs. Nothing helped so far. Remember this started to occur after I did the oil pump job, replaced the fall-apart old mounts and a whole list of other things while I was there.

1. did the propane and carb cleaner spray trick, no leaks found.
2. replaced the IAC and AMM, no change.

Any suggestions? Thanks. Erwin
