96 Tahoe stars runs fine when cold when its warm won't start without holding fuel pedal down cranks a while starts its flooded runs at 2k for 15 20 sec, after it settles down it runs fine. New cap rotor wires plugs fuel and air filter fuel pressure 55# 180000 miles. Thanks Travis

Travis:

I would start by having the ambient temp sensor tested. IT may be telling the computer it is very cold out which will cause the computer to run a very rich mixture to the engine for a cold start.

Check that and let me know what you find.
