1996 ranger pain to start when cold

hey
i have a 1996 ford ranger, reading an EVAP code, the truck sputters and dies when its cold, and once its warm its fine, but still runs a little rough, just came out of the shop for a crank sensor,
any tips???
thanks

When you first start your PU, the computer senses (via tempt. sensor) that the engine is cold and operates on default mode. That means that all inputs are temporarily ignored. As the engine warms, the computer starts reading all inputs. Suggest you check that temperature sensor (not the gauge sensor).

thanks DonSor, i changed the tep sensor o i will see in the morning now how she starts. truck is also idleing rough....thinking pvc?
thanks

hey everone, i changed the temp. sensor in the truck, and still it doesnt like to start(only when its been sitting overnight/motor is cold), and idles rough. also the check engin light is on, i have spent hrs trying to figure it out, so before i take it back to the shop once again, i thought i would see if anyone had anymore ideas?
any would be helpfull!!

Try to get the code on the CEL with an OBD II.

You might take a close look at all your vacuum hoses, a leaking hose could cause the rough idle

okay so i got ahold of an OBDii reader and the check engine light was for the o2 sensor. still didnt fix the rough idle problem, was thinking EGR valve? im about to give up lol

Use some carb. cleaner spray around the intake looking for leaks. Spray around the vacuum hoses also if you hit a leak the engine will smooth out.
Make sure your Maf sensor is connected you might try cleaning this item.
Check and make sure the air filter is clean and the gas filter has been changed. Did it find it lean check fuel pressure. Rich look more for proper air flow good hoses.
