cold start misfire
okay to start off with, 86 na... never did start too well, i would have to let it warm up while holding the throttle around 1.5k-2.5k ( i think it has a bad high idle control valve). but one day it was extra stubborn, and when it finally did start, it was sputtering like only one rotor was running, so i gave it a lil extra rev and it disappeared, and started running perfectly fine. shut off and restart with a hot start, starts right up, every time. come back from work to drive home, its difficult to start, and sputters for a little longer, eventually it was sputtering up to 30 seconds to a minute until it started running fine... hot starts always are just fine. i have lost no power once it does run properly. it almost seems like its flooded on one rotor. does this sound like a leaking injector? i've searched a couple of times, but workin 7 days a week, and sometimes 10 hours a day, make it a little difficult. i am hopeing its not a coolant leak.
