Default Need some more help lol

Ok found my boost leak and alls good, but sometimes when my cars been sitting and the engine cools off and i go to start it when it does it like idles really low and i cant really rev it and sometimes dies a couple times. i try to rev it and its slow revving then after it heats it up it seems to run fine and idle ok. Anyone know what this could be? And its a 1992 VR-4.

This might sound dumb but are the plugs gapped properly?

They said they were pre-gapped. But i was thinking if it was the gap wouldn't it do that all the time instead of just when its starting up.

Yeah I know I just wanted to throw that out there, does it smoke at all when you first start it? How many miles are on the engine?

I could be a coolant temp sensor starting to act up and make the car foul the plugs when you first start. Just an idea, happens a lot on 1g's.
