Default Crappy Cold Start!!

Hey there,

I need a solution to a problem. My morning starts (or after a few hours of cool down) is pretty rough, as in it will start but put it into gear & it stalls. It will run normally after quite a while of warm up (just like the old days) but it never used to be this way. It's like some sort of choke problem (IAC?) Once it is completly warm it has no problem starting up again. Just had my fuel pressure checked & it's OK. Replaced fuel filter also.
thanx in advance.
