feels flooded when cold

alright so pretty much when i start my car and begin to drive it will be okay till about 1500 rpm then it will just kinda hesitate and act like its going to die. after about a minute it will be fine though..

i did some reasearch and some people said it could be the iac or the cts on the pump. i pulled the sensor clip on the iac and it idled super high then ewhen i plugged it back in it went back to 800-1000 rpm i i figured that was working. i am going to replace the cts tommorrow but i was just seeing if anyone knows what else could cause it before i change that sensor.

thanks

the metal pipe that goes into the exhaust manifold was loose and air as entering around it causing it to run richwhen cold but, when it warmed up it would expand the hose to close off the leak.. problem fixed and im happy
