Hello I have a 1986 240GL. While starting the engine while it is cold. The car will not stay started. Only when the car is warm it will run well. Are there any ideas on what I need to address? Thanks in advance for your replies.

First thing to do is to clean the throttle body and idle motor good.
If that doesn't work check the coolant temp sensor.
