I've had my 90 Westy automatic since 2007. Up until this past summer, the van would start up and idle beautifully, and I could drive it right away. Now, roughly since this past fall, all of a sudden I have to sit and give it gas for 5 or 10 minutes before I can go anywhere. After it's "warmed up" it drives perfectly and idles perfectly when stopped. I've had regular routine maintenance done by mechanics, but this just seems to have started out of nowhere. What needs to be done? Patti 90 Westy Automatic 117,000 miles Los Angeles
