error code need LX/DX/STD owners help!

hoopty whoop is having troubles. it is an 89 LX with my old d16a6 (from 89 Si). it doesn't have the MPFI conversion and it's stock ecu. the car think's it's still a LX (or DX/STD engine wise).

here's the deal...the last couple of nights it has gotten really cold. yesterday and this morning i have started the car and get a code 10 (intake air temperature). the car will start but drop idle rapidly until it dies unless you sit there with your foot on the gas.

could the problem be it doesn't like the custom intake in the cold? i took the air restriction plate out. could it just be sucking in too much cold air...would replacing the plate help? is a sensor freaking out on me somewhere? the problem didn't start until it got cold. anyone else ever have this problem?

after like an hr, pulled the hazard fuse and reset the ecu yesterday and it started. going to go utside and try it again in a few. it seems to work but i can't be doing this everyday i want to drive the car :toothless
