Hard Starting Cold & Lean Stumble 99 OB

B

Bill

For those searching on this problem as I did...

Cold starting was hard; didn't even have to
be that cold. Backfiring and poor drivability
until warm, then OK.

No check engine light.

Based on previous suggestions, I replaced the
coolant temperature sensor. That completely
fixed it. Good thing, too, I'm not sure what I
would have tried next.

BTW, getting to the thing is a b*tch. I once
did it on my '95 impreza and couldn't remember just
how. This article was most
helpful! Step by step photos.

Those hoses didn't just slip off, however!
