Hi David;
My 85T does the same thing. I've tried all you have and more without success - probably not what you want to hear. Lots of other posters will suggest checking for vacuum leaks first - have you done that? Did you buy a rebuilt AMM, or did you rebuilt it yourself? If you rebuilt it, how, and do you see a glowing red wire after turning off the engine as described in the Bentley Manual?
My efforts at trying to get a better idle on cold start have revolved mostly around sealing vacuum leaks, but the most dramatic effect on cold idle was resetting the timing (off by an incredible 16 degrees when I bought the car). It run fantastically now, but as always, only when warmed up. God luck, and please post the soultion if you eventually find it. Thanks, Charles
