Rouge idle when cold

Not sure who this is so it's a bit difficult to advise. Please fill in all the information in the User Control Panel http://forum.gopowerhungry.com/usercp.php so we know who we're working with.

As for the FICM/ECM, we occasionally run into this issue. In most cases, we've found the FICM output voltage to be low and with the updated FICM strategy it doesn't (pre)heat the injectors rapidly enough to help eliminate the cold start issue. I don't think reflashing the ECM will resolve the starting issue as the Inductive Heating strategy is handled solely through the FICM. The simple resolution is to switch the FICM strategy to the more aggressive Inductive Heating strategy which unfortunately is sure to eventually kill the FICM. There may be some other resolutions, but need to know who this is so I can reference your order and get a clear idea of what we've got going on.

Let me know.
