I could also be just that it's so cold out that it's having a hard time working properly. Look for - vacum leaks, air intake system leaks or MAF dirty, Throttle body and linkage binding. 1996 2.5LT V6 Contour ATX My Tour+help/info pics E0 rims, Gutted Pre-Cats,CTA Custom Exhaust & Intake, Diablo Chip.

I've done mine twice in 4 years. If yours has never been done. Ummmmm do it!! Read this thread!
