Also do a 3x3 on your ATF before it's too late. Don't assume it has been done unless you have documentation stating so.. You can also go by the color of the ATF, it should look like cherry syrup not chocolate milk.

is there a way to filter these threads out? i see stuff like this that has been answered a million times before every day. it really junks up the forum when the info is right there in the FAQ or 3G garage.

Hey you know what. I actually watched a documentary on the old planes of WW1 or WW2. It was when they had Propellers. And that was one of their complaints about 1 plane that when it started, it was hard to start and it ran terribly rough and they could not take off from the Ship until it warmed up. But when they preheated the oil, the viscosity was more free, and then the plane started MUCH easier and it rans much smoother and they could go to battle faster. So, basically, I think a thinner oil may be a good idea for startup. The smaller the number, the thicker it is, right? like 5w is thicker than 20w.. right? That may work!

I'm just guessing. You never know, it could be a lean condition at startup? whatever it is, when these TL's were new it didn't happen. So who knows.

My car seems to vibrate more in the morning then standing still. RPM's are not jumping, however feels weird. Check spark plugs and they seems to be pretty new. After it warms us everything is fine again. Any idea what it can be? Anyone has same problems. Car has around 100k miles and is 2004. Did SeaFoam and still same. Always put BP Premium. Any suggestions?
