It's a bit wierd that one...I had to replace the cold start switch on my rev2 tubby...when it finally gave up the ghost, my car was overfuelling soo much I couldn't start it...also the cold start injector can leak causing overfuelling or erratic behaviour maybe.
I now leave the injector unplugged in the warmer months and plug it back in when it's cold...I found that unplugging the sensor caused running/idling probs.
