Im almost positive ive seen this post before, I tried searching but no results. So if anyone can help it would be appreciated as always.
The question: When its very cold out, I start my car and about 3-4 seconds later the car shuts off, if I wait a second and turn it back on its fine...anyone have any similar issues??? or do you know what the problem could be???

 

Yup, has been posted, NBD, has happened to a few peeps, including myself. Now that is it get'n cold, my S is parked in the garage with the one day a week i take it out for a good 40+mile run. Some things i have noticed about it......1) when i start car, it revs to maybe 2.5k, holds for a sec, then it will drop to the 1-1.5k range, and will sometimes stall out 2) It seems to drop revs then stall out about the same time i let the clutch back out, could just be lucky timing 3) When the RPM's drop to 1k, give the car a 'little' throtle blip, and it does not stall. Hope this helps/make ya feel better

V8-What?

 

It's always a possibility that it's the proverbial "MAP" sensor. Give it a few good thumps with your knuckle.
Most likely it's the car's ECU being confused by any changes in temp/humidity, etc. Let is stall and don't further confuse it by pressing on the gas pedal. After several start/stall cycles (maybe up to 1/2 doz.), hopefully it will "learn" and it will not do it again till next year at this same time.

 

Great advice Xvip.....I dont remember to blip the throtle everytime, and the last 3-4 times i had forgoten to do it, it stalled, and after reading your post i realized, that the last 2 times i have started her cold, it reved, droped, and did w/out stalling.
