Rob_the_Sparky 9 Posted April 19, 2006 Well extra air is added regardless of engine temp so it is unlikely to be that. Extra fuel is added based on water temperature so I guess it is possible but I've not heard of this being a problem before. Normally if the ECU temperature sensor goes then it initially runs a bit rich and then reads -40C when it gives up the ghost, clearly at this point it will hugely overfuel and will effect much more than just starting.
