Rough start

I was also having a rough start with my '90 240. I cleaned the throttle body - no change. I changed the air box thermostat and the car starts great, but...

I posted my results here and some have commented that the thermo won't affect the start and that by chance I bumped, pulled, fixed by accident, something else.

You got me. The car starts strong after a $13 part and 20 minutes of labor. I'll accept it.
