Rough idle when cold - things to check?

i think he was being facetious.
for me, on cold starts it would chug for maybe 15-30 seconds, surge up to 12-1300 or so, then idle around 900. the problem im also 99% sure was injectors, 3 of the 4 the internal shielding was toast. i dont have my new ones yet, and the engine is still outside of the vehicle, but way too much fuel being dumped can cause goofy issues

Now I have the 800-1300RPM issue. It builds up and cuts out every 20 seconds or so. Guess I have to look into the TPS.
