Default Cold start - First start always stalls

Hey all, I've got a bit of an issue with cold starts. I'm thinking it's related to my CL idle settings as it doesn't occur with warmup only mode.

The first start of the day will ALWAYS stall. The second start will taper down to a regular idle fine.

I've moved the crank to run taper from 3 seconds, to 7, to the 12 it's set at now but it didn't seem to make a difference.

I've attached my tune and a log of the issue happening. Any advice or ideas?

Someone nudge me in the right direction please, thanks!

it's you poorly tuned idle settings.


increase cranking duty and the CL delay.

I must have overlooked PID delay. I was adjusting crank-to-run thinking that would delay it.

I changed the delay to 7 seconds, hopefully the engine will have some time to catch its breadth before entering CL.
