I looked at everything. Still going to have it smoke tested again, but I have a crazy question. My Explorer is a Florida truck. Has always been in the warm climate up until 2 months ago when we moved to New Hampshire. Since we have been here and I have had to park on an incline, this issue has been happening. I have parked on a flat street a few times and didn't have this issue when I started my truck. It seems to be happening ONLY on cold starts that I am parked on an incline. This morning, I started it on the incline and then backed it up onto flat surface. While on the incline it ran like it normally does at start up, rough and have to give it gas or it will stall. The second I got on the flat surface, the idle evened out and ran perfect. I have tried this a few times, and each time got the same results. Could the fact that I park uphill have something to do with anything?
