Extremely Rough Cold Idle 850 1996

Joe, hey I have a '94 Turbo, and it recently started doing the same thing. My problem dosent seem as bad though. I start it and it shakes a little until it warms up. Its never stalled though. However, my best friends '96 Lexus ES300 had a problem almost identical to yours, it would rumble, shake, and die. When it warmed up it was fine. The next day the check engine light came on. They replaced the o2 sensor and everything was fine. My light just recently came on too, so im assuming its the same thing. Is your check engine light on? If so I will bet on that being your problem. If not, what kind of gas are you using? Do yourself a favor, switch to premium. After a few tanks of Premium(92+ octane) your car should be running better. Good Luck!
