87 turbo won't idle at first, but runs great after driving

I just bought an 87 turbo 4x4 and it wants to die when I first start it, but a few minutes after I start driving it'll idle perfectly at 1000 and it runs really strong. Any suggestions?

Sounds to me like there might be a problem with your cold idle. Also I think 1000RPM at idle is a little high, I believe hot idle is supposed to be 750, and cold idle 1000. But that could just be for the n/a engines, I don't know about the turbo.
Did you try adjusting your idle?

Oh yeah, Welcome to the Forums!
