more fuel when cold ..so it runs rough ,plugs prone to fouling a bit..so people like to remove the washers off thier plugs to get the spark at the fuel..(little antisieze)..that's what I'vre read here..just passin info ..Wankel Christmas and a Rotary New Year!
It's not a misfire by the computer or spark plugs, it's the excess fuel burning off in the motor during cold startup. I've noticed if I de-flood the engine at cold startup it cranks like a champ, but when you just start her up it does what you're saying. I'm assuming my old leaky injectors are the cause.
