S80 Dies after cold startup, but otherwise runs great 1999 S80 1999

Hello all,

I was frequent board reader the last couple years diagnosing my 260, then my 760, and now my next apparent outcast, a 1999 S80.

Anyway, I cleaned the throttle body last weekend, which alleviated some symptoms, but it still dies right after startup (like my 760). Only when cold from sitting overnight, and restarts fine after then 2nd attempt. Runs great otherwise. In addition to the TB cleaning, I replaced the fuel filter a week or so ago to no avail. The car has about 95,000 mi. on it. I was thinking a coolant temp sensor, but I tried the test of disconnecting the AMM to see if it starts better, but that required 3 start attempts to get it going, versus the normal 2 attempts.

It's not an emergency, but still an annoyance that makes me unhappy :( But I love the challenge.

Thanks again.
Aaron
