1996 plymouth voyager. It runs very rough when the engine is cold. If I have it in park and I give it gas over 2000 rpm it starts acting like it is not getting any gas. Once the engine warms up the car runs perfect! It has been doing it for a while. I crank up the engine and let it run for 6 minutes before I drive it. Any ideas. I think it is a sensor, but am not sure. Thanks

When was your last tune-up. If it's been past 50,000 miles, start with this.

If your problem persist, then try putting some "Heat" in your gas tank. When it's really cold, any water in the lines will turn to ice and cause problems like this.

If this doesn't work, check coils, fuel pump/filter, Fuel pressure regulator and finally the sensors.
