Low RPMs when first starting

Here lately, when I first start my 94 Yota, the RPMs will only come up to about 500 (not even that sometimes). Of course, it'll shake like crazy, but if I give it a little gas, the RPMs will steady out at the 800 I've set it to. From then on, the idle is fine. It's only when I first crank it up.

What could this be? Cold start injector?

What year/model/engine are we talking about?

My first guess would be the vacuum switch that holds the idle up until the engine is warm...

Have you had this problem since the rebuild or is it recent?

Mine did that, had a blown head gasket on #4. It was blowing water out the exhaust. No water got in the oil. I found it when I was changing the plugs, #4's ceramic was broken, and I shot a little air in the hole and water came out.

TNRabbit, it only seems consistent here lately. But, it's been having a rough idle since I got the truck (before the engine rebuild). I've slowly been fixing stuff on it, making it better little by little.

Check your injector seals.
