hello could anyone help me solve the problem of my car stalling when cold.. when i go to start it up after a couple of hours.. it cuts out constantly until 2 bars are reached on the coolant temp gauge.. ive changed the temp sensor(the white one) but still doing it.. it struggles on tick over until the 2 bar temp is reached then is perfectly ok all round... please help as this is a really frustrating issue

problem solved here. but i thought i'd write what i did to solve.... after replacing the air intake manifold.and 2 coolant temp sensors..the problem was exactly the same.... i had a look at what was going on when it cut out and a simple bottle of wd40 solved the problem... the air inlet valve was sticking when cold and not shutting completely when the throttle was released so a few sprays and a clean of this and the inlet sensor and the problem was permanently solved.... hope this helps others:d:d:d:d:d:d
