Replaced distributor, coolant temperature sensor, spark plugs, and oxygen sensor. Swaped out with another car the computer, air box, idle speed motor. I''ve run injector cleaner in the gas tank with no difference. I''m stumped Post #: 1 RE: 90 Golf Cold Idle problems - 7/21/2008 8:48:02 PM    bagel Posts: 1346 Joined: 8/16/2005 Status: offline the idle goes to normal after 2-3 minutes?  Well it is a 1990; is there any running problems when you''re driving?? _____________________________ 00 Jetta VR6 GLS 12V 2.8L Magnaflow Exhaust Custom Cold Air Intake Eurosport Underdrive Pulley GIAC Chip Diamond Mesh Front Grill Smoked Euro Tail Lights 18" ADR Rims www.myspace.com/volkswagenforums http://air2water.2ksite.com (in reply to dsontos) Post #: 2 RE: 90 Golf Cold Idle problems - 7/22/2008 4:18:50 AM    dsontos   Posts: 5 Joined: 6/10/2007 Status: offline The car seems to run fine after the initial warmup.
