Hey so just now starting to get cold here (30-40 degrees F during morning starts). and my car is going nuts lol. its only on cold starts too, so maybe there is a fix, or someones had the problem.
Anyhow i have vids of whats happening on the cold start, and then like 3 mins later when it warms up just a tad and its fine.
Only at idle as well, if i gas it even a little bit it just holds around 2k and doesn't jump. Maybe i can just tighten up the throttle cable a little for the winter months?
It's fine when warm and driving too, no differences i can notice

Cold start up vid



Warmed up (fine)

Hi,

your engine is not warmed up fine, how high is the rpm once the temp. needle is in the middle of the scale? or after a drive of 10-15km?

-> if it is around 1000rpm everything is fine......

you just have a little temp on the water but your oil is still cold

no no confusion here sorry for that.
the second vid was just like 5 mins after the start up where the rpm's dropped slightly and it stopped going crazy.
After its actually warm (operating temp) the oil pressure is around 30psi at idle and RPM around 800-900 at idle.
