[V8] rough cold starts

[george.fallot@verizon.net]

    Thanks for everyones help.After testing at the ecu pins I found that the
plastic plug at the sensor had broken down and the two wires at the sensor
were touching at times.
    I took the plug apart and put heat shrink tubing over the part of the
wires outside of the plug.So far the code is gone and the car runs well
again.
     Thanks ,George
