The timming may not br properly set ( too far advanced or retarded ) causing the car to lag ( power loss ) when cold.

while working around an engine, sometimes a needed connector is not fully seated, or comes off, like the furl enrichment valve ,or something to that effect, the brain doesn't always monitor such things as that
