recently, at mornings, I start and it would just run fine at first for first 5 seconds then start to sputter and sound like its going to die
, after a few revs it would normally act much better, and sometimes, after starting it would shut right back off, then fire up nicely on the next start immediately after and run fine. What could the problem be? oh and its a ST205 pretty much stock

first guess would be a dirty idle air controller. its located under the throttle body
