Car starts then dies, but only when its cold outside...
The car is a 5spd 93 Integra RS (B18A1) Stock. When I go to start the car and its somewhat chilly out the car will start and then die. I have to give it gas and rev it up until the car starts its normal idle. But if its warm out the car wont give me any problems. and starts up just fine.
Ive been doing some searching and I just cant seem to pinpoint the problem.
If the ECT was bad wouldnt the car throw a code? I bought a completely new Distributor and have yet to install it. I know there isnt a vacuum leak so It has to be either the Ignition system, or the Fuel system. And if the ECT was bad then that would in turn affect the fuel system correct?
