The "cold enrichement" doesn't happen after it warms up. You leaving your foot off the throttle?

^^^ engine temp.

So I'm saying that is not helping start once the truck warms up. I'm recently new to the fuel injected version (just sold my '88 carb model) but mine seems to like a bit of throttle to start when warm. If you're used to "pumping the gas" to get more fuel to help the start process ... there's nothing injecting additional fuel when u do this with fuel injection.

Thanks. I'm getting an actual Toyota manual next week. I should have some luck figuring it out then. Thanks a lot.
