Stall when starting cold
Just like the subject says my car will stall when starting cold. Only once and after that it runs great. Idles fine and drives fine. No check engine lights or anything. New plugs and wires and fuel filter. Has always done it since i've bought it.

I'm thinking the regulator as well. Is it gonna hurt the car to not change it right away? Like I said earlier the car runs and drives great after the initial start.

Mine used to do the same thing untilo I changed the FPR. I think we figured out all that was happening was the bad FPR was allowing the fuel to drain back towards the tank, instead of maintaining pressure like it was supposed to.
So, if it is the FPR, then all your doing is putting a little extra effort getting the pressure back up to where it needs to be
