Rough cold start - 2004 f150 reman engine
My 2004 f150 starts terribly after sitting there for a couple of hours.
Every morning and after work it starts and as soon as it turns over the rpms are like up and down from 500-700 and it sounds kinda like muffled. Then after about 5 seconds the idle will just randomly go up to 1100 rpm and it will sound just fine and drive just dine cold.
So after this cold start I drove it a mile. Pulled over then restarted the engine to see what would happen. It started perfectly.
Any help would be great.
Thanks

Are getting a crank with no start or a long crank?
