[V8] Cold Weather Sensors

[cobram at juno.com]

FWIW I had something similar happening with V8Q #1, I'm not really sure,
but the problem seemed to go away after I adjusted the Throttle Position
Sensor.  I was adjusting the TPS for another reason.  It was one of those
things where it was a little while before it dawned on me that the
problem had gone away, had 5 type 44's in the fleet at the time.
