I've never been too impressed with the way my Lib cranks when it's a cold start. Is there any remedy? It always starts fine when it's already been driven and warmed up that day.

Curious if everyone experiences this. Switched about 1,000 miles ago to the OEM spark plug. Gaps are all fine. Same Exxon gas station every fill up.

All I know is that KKs starts louder and the rpms are almost at 1000 when cold (normal idle are ~ 500 - 600). Its normal and the reason for this is to warm the motor up faster.

Thanks for responding. I'll take note of RPMS next cold start.
