Flooded? Idle? Misfire?
Recently Whenever I would start my car cold, my car would just go crazy. First whenever the car revs below 2K RPM the car feels like it's about to die, the whole car starts to shake violently. So if I keep it above 2K then it feels fine.
Then about 1 or 2 minutes the car stops shaking and starts to idle at 1.5.
So then I rev the car to about 5K and it fixes the problem and starts reving at .8-1K. then every once in a while it'll jump back up to 1.5K again.
anyone have an idea what's wrong? Sensor? Injectors? Spark?
any help would be great

If the wires are disintergrating, then yes that could be a possible problem.
Easy way yet not soo much recommended is when the car is running, spray some water on your plug wires, if you see spark, wires are bad.
