if all else fails, lookup the TB mod. the part that actuates the 3k coldstart is the thermowax. http://<br /> <a href="http://k2rd....TB/tb.html</a>
has a good writeup. you can disable the cold-start crap without doing the other stuff

On the bottom of your radiator, on the left side, there is a switch with two wires going to it . Pull one or if you want both connectors off the switch. The 3000 will not happen again. There is another but really better way. On the left side of the engine, just a few inches from the dipstick is a item called the AIR BYPASS SOLENOID VALVE. It is barrel shaped and has two rubber hose going to it and an electrical connector. Disconnect the electrical connector. Done. Through. That valve is the one that causes the 3000 rpm for 17 seconds. It is preferable to disconnect that plug over the one at the bottom of the radiator. The disconnect of the one below the radiator effects more than the 3000 rpm for 17 seconds. Or you can do like the man said, and put your shifter in gear while you start the engine. That will do in the 3000 for 17 seconds.
