There is no good reason to have to sit and let any engine warm up for this long. You need to get to the heart of the problem. There are no common parts between your FI and Matt's, so don't be tempted to assume similar causes for similar symptoms. Do you have any kind of manuals? Do you have a good mechanic? Where are you located? Do you have a voltmeter? How much are you willing to study and learn?
