the owners manual gives specific instructions for cold starting. It says to get in, press the accelerator to the floor and release s-l-o-w-l-y, and then turn the key.


Those sound like directions for a carbureted engine... he's got a 3.0L FI engine, and the instructions for those are usually something along the lines of amputate your right foot so that you won't be tempted to try to set the non-existent choke... just turn the key and let the ECU take care of the rest... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
