Ok so the past few times I started my 94 Rt/10, I let it warm up a couple minutes then drove out of my garage. I noticed it was running rougher and missing but I attributed it to being cold( the engine, not the air temp.) After it got warmed up every thing was fine. Today I took it out again and the same thing happened but it felt worse. I could barely get it out of the drive and the check engine light came on. I putted it back in the drive way and shut it off. Turned it back on and the check light was out. Once it got warm all was well again. Any ideas as to what the problem may be? When it's warm it runs perfectly, but man some thing has to be wrong for it to almost stall and idle fluctuate so badly when cold. Thanks for any help guys!

I would sync the throttle bodies first just because it is easy. Maybe the battery is getting low and the car runs better after it gets charged back up a little?

Probably not the answer, but easy places to start.
