What do you mean car goes through cold start? As in it revs to 3k and dies or runs until the car is warm? Is this a fresh rebuild or just start happening to a car that ran fine before the issue?

Mainly reason i ask, is because i may be having the same problem as you. Lol.

Sounds like the "circuit opening relay". Do a search, there ate many threads about it.

just thought id update this and see if you ever found the issue. I found it with mine tha had the same problem, or so i think anyways. My problem was the AFM. Eventhough i was told it was good, it was not. so just a heads up if you havent found the issue yet.
