so i drive my mazda daily. and every morning it has this problem......


when it is cold outside in the morning and i get in and start driving after like 20 minutes it starts to putter and stall a bit till eventually the engine turns off. when it does that i just sit in the truck for 10 minutes and it starts back up.

anyone have suggestions?
all i can think of are moisture in the gas tank. need a new puel filter/pump. or the choke is kinda messed???

do you have the stock exhaust? i had a similar issue and the cat was plugged i guess... a long time ago i took it to a mechanic and thats what he told me. i had some stuff to do and borrowed my dad's truck and when i got back my brother had removed my cat, punched a hole thru it and reinstalled it. ran fine after that. it would bog down real bad before....
