Default Car starts, revs once, dies... fancy pedal work until ~1 minute on

Hi, I have a new challenge.

Starting the car this morning took 4-5 tries... it would start, rev up to about 1200 rpm, then sag down to zero (off). It took a lot of twiddling the gas on start to get her to stay alive. Then after about a minute she's fine. The ambient temp was about 45 degrees F.

I know there's several widgets that affect this... from these specific symptoms, which needs replacin'?

thanks in advance

I'd guess your connections to the Temp II sensor are not clean. More fuel is required to get a cold engine started. The LH injection controller doesn't know if the engine cold unless old.

Clean it and check the ohm values at the LH plug and at the sensor.
