My car ran like a champ in cool/cold weather til this year as well and now a couple times before I stored it for winter it would start up, bog down, and die in cool weather. Not sure if it's related or not but this is the first year it's ran in cold weather since the cam/manifold swap so maybe the AF ratio is off or something...who knows...I'd like to know the answer too though!

yea I figured it out!! It's the IAC I tried to start the car turned over immediately but wouldn't stay running bogged after like 2 fires! So then I took off the IAC and cleaned it and it was dirty... Put it back on and It Started right up. So I ordered one from Randy Should be here tomorrow.
