Hey all, got a weird one for ya. When I start from cold, about 10 seconds after I start, I lose a cylinder. 5 to 10 seconds after this it picks up again. There are no other symptoms. The car has always done it since I've had it, and in that time I've replaced the coils, leads and plugs. Ignition module maybe, which would mean I'm actually on 2 cylinders, which is possible beacause it sounds like crap. Maybe an injector?

What cylinder is it? You are going to have to be quick to test it. Does it do it every time?

Could be a crook temp sender, putting the computer into limp mode, at just warm, then restoring normal operation as it warms up.

Diamonds are forever....
+1 on the temp sensor that Ross mentioned... I had the coolant temp sensor on the thermostat housing telling the ECU that the coolant was -59° and it didn't like that one bit.
Are you not data logging? Check the wires going into the sensor and make sure it doesn't look like mine did!!
