hmmm, thats wierd uhmm, maybe your starters goin bad and your alternator/distrubutor too, did you change those out durin the rebuild, like get fresh new ones? my old vert used to have trouble idling when it was cold i had to crank it for a few then hold the gas, i sold it to my friend and he got it fixed it was an intake electrical problem or something

It could be because its a rebuild and sometimes compression takes a while to become consistant. How many miles are on the rebuild? I know having a kill switch is good to have while its breaking in because of flooding issues.
