    Default Cold start problems

    This is an odd one. When I start my 2.2sri direct from cold if I hit the throttle anytime in the first 2 mins the thing dies and cuts out. At the same time the engine management light comes on and stays on for anything between an hour and a day. However if I turn her on and let it tick over for a couple of mins everything is well and she runs great - any ideas? PS its 2004 2.2sri direct
