Runs quite rought when first started
When we start the 944 cold (summertime cold anyway) the engine catches within a crank or 2 but will kind of chug and shake for the first 7-10 seconds and then settle into a nice idle at about 1000 RPM. DOesn't do it when warm/hot.
Is this typical or should it fire and run nice and smooth??
Just done:
Belts, plugs, water pump, All vacuum hoses, etc...

I had this problem and it turned out to be a head gasket leak. Car ran fine otherwise and did not smoke, but when shutoff, coolant would leak into the cylinder(s) and cause hard starting for a few seconds after it had sat overnight.
Could also be the ISV although it is completely removed on my brother's 944 and above 70 degress or so it seems to have almost no effect on startup/idle. When it is colder he has to crack the throttle to keep it running until it warms up.

Engine runs at a normal temp. Good powah and nice idle after running for 20 seconds.
ISV was cleaned when we had the manifold off. I didn't test it or check operation. Warm idle is fine, nice and smooth. Just the initial start it does a few shakes and chugs. I'll try to video it for better description.

I heard that once your car is warmed up on idle is doesn't use the ISV... could be wrong dunno. If you can get to it I'd test it along with the TPS... couldn't hurt anyway multimeter is our friend with these cars lol
