Poor idle when cold 850 1997

After resolving my frozen intercooler, thanks to Klaus, i have immediately developed another slight problem. Normally my car idles perfect when starting on cold winter mornings but now the idle fluctuates between about 600-900rpm. It seems fine when warm. If it's not fully warmed up it will burp when you touch the gas pedal slightly. Also when cold it will chug a little when accelerating slowly although I've had that symptom for quite some time. I've noticed somethng else, not sure if it is realted but when I shift from D to R it seems to clunk into reverse, not smooth like before. Thanks in advance for help.
