Why do you have to give your fuel injected car gas to start when cold?

Replace the temp sensor. The ECM doesn't know the engine is cold if the temp sensor is bad.
You could also check out the throttle position sensor (TPS) and the Idle control servo (ICS).

What happens when putting in gas while the vehicle is still on?
it would depend if the car is carburated, or fuel injected... if it is carburated it can flood the motor (if this happens just give it about 20 mins and try and start it again), if it is fuel injected nothing will happen.
How do you change the fuel pump on a 1986 Chevy Celebrity?
That depends on whether your engine has a carburettor or is fuel injected. If your engine has a carburettor the fuel pump is on the lower engine block. If your engine is fuel injected the fuel pump is in the gas tank. Tell me which engine you have and I can give a more specific answer.

What would cause intermittent no start stalling aready replaced the engine the computer and fuel pump on my fuel injected V8 95 camaro Z28?
Start with the coil(s) and the ignition control module. This is usually the cause of intermittent problems. Also check the fuel pressure...maybe a bad fuel pressure regulator. Did you put on a new fuel filter with the pump? That should give you a place to start.

Your 1986 MB 190E is having trouble starting after you get gas but if you pour a little gas in the carburetor and try starting 10-15 times it usually starts so whats the problem?
This is just a stab in the dark but your fuel maybe pergulating, if so there is too much heat coming from your manifold to the underside of you carburettor and it is boiling your fuel in the carburetor I you, Nibbs First of all, a 1986 190E is not carbureted. It has a mechanical fuel injection system that is computer and vacuum controlled. Next it could be an array of things, 1. The cold start injector could be plugged or faulty. (this is a very common issue on alot of pre 1993 benz) 2. It could also be the coolant temp sensor. (if one were faulty then it would be sending an incorrect signal to the computer causing it to think the engine is warm, thus making the cold start injector inoperable. the main purpose of the injector is to give the engine fuel when its cold because as it is fuel injected it lacks a choke to aid in cold starting... hopefully this helps!! -supra_mk3tt-
