This past weekend I swapped out my cam follower, changed the oil, did a coolant flush and replaced the coolant temp sensor. Everything seemed fine after the flush, sensor and follower were replaced. After I changed the oil I started the car and it was bucking and hesitated to start for a couple seconds. I could feel vibrations in the brake petal while it was trying to turn over.

It does that now every time I start it until it warms up and then it's fine. The idle seems fine and everything seems normal after it starts. Just rough starts all of the sudden. Scanned for codes and nothing came up. Oil level is normal. Fuel filter is new.

I should mention it's been miserably hot and humid for the past week in NY. Temps in the upper 90's. Seems like too much of a coincidence for this to start happening after I did the maintenance. Any ideas?
