Default 93 civic b18c swap COLD START DIES

my buddy's car when its cold it will fire but die immediatley unless you give it gas for about a min then it'll barely idle of course unless u pull the vacume from the fpr then it idles fine but not the issue i dont think

it has no cel's new fuel filter fuel pump primes he took off iacv to clean it but to no avail havent tried another ecu yet but i dont see that being the issue since the car still runs after its warm and it doesnt throw a cel

any ideas would be greatly appreciated ? he thinks its the iacv but i told him no sense in wasting 200 bux on a new one just taking a wild guess

Clean your IACV and TPS. Sounds like its smothering itself.
