Default Trouble Shooting Help

Well as the video shows, when first starting my car it will run really rough. The tach bounces all over the place and it is basically impossible to drive. Once it is warmed up though, it runs like normal. Anyone have any ideas of why?

Your video is marked as private, can't watch it. But I had something like what you described happen to me, it turned out to be a bad ground connection from neg. cable to block. Cleaned it up good and all was right in the world again.
