The first start of the day always fails. It will start, and then as soon as ASE is done, the engine dies. The second start always takes and doesn't really even act like it's going to die.
I have tried both with the first start enrichment on and off but that doesn't seem to make any difference.
I can let it sit for hours after the engine has warmed up and it will start first time, but if left overnight it will not start properly the first time.
Any suggestions?

Mine does the same since installing my 550s except it takes me like 3 or 4 tries that first time of the day. Also, mine doesn't even finish the 30 second ASE before it dies.
How long is your ASE and are you running decay or fixed then decay? I have had much better luck with fixed then decay.
