Missfire when cold Hey guys, My car recently started idling really bad when i turn on the car. Just start missfiring hard and wants to turn off. I have to keep it revved inorder to keep it from almost turning off. It has been really cold outside, and once it heats up the car runs fine. What could it be besides the wires and plugs?

How do the plugs look?
Fluid levels?
Need to find out if the problem is an electrical or a mechanical failure. The first thing that pops into my mind is the thought of coolant entering the combustion chambers after the engine is shut-off and cooling off. In turn affecting your cold start-up the coolant eventually burns off and the car runs normal again. Those are my thoughts and I hope that they will help! Good luck!
