Cold Start Problem Fixed!

posted by  someone claiming to be TomD on  Sun Nov 24 12:10 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Kirk,

I agree with Don and others, I can't see how changing the thermostat would directly affect the cold start problem.

But, the process of opening the airbox would have likely jiggled the AMM connector. If the connector was making poor contact previously, this wiggling could have slightly improved the contacts and affecting the air/fuel mixture calculation.

Just a guess, and pure speculation. Others may have a better answer.

Good Luck!

Regards,

TomD
