car studering

i have a 02 s2000 with 64000 miles on it and now every so often sense the weather has changed, evey time i start the car it starts but i kinda sounds like its running on 3 cylinders or somthing. so i figure it could be the map sensor but im not sure that is why im asking what u guys think it could be. as soon as i turn the car off and turn it back on it is finel Thank uou , Tommy

could be the MAP sensor. Dis connect it spray some contact cleaner on the connections and then plug it back in.

sounds just like when the ecu is adjusting itself to the change in weather.
let it be. even if it feels likes it's gonna stall. the computer is making adjustments and finding it's parameters.
