3.4 dies when engine is cold

Bad coolant temp sensor. The engine is running lean, becuase the temp sensor thinks the engine is warmer than it really is. Check with a scantool...let the car sit overnight. Coolant temp reading from the scantool should be very close to actual air temp. I'm betting you'll find that the sensor is reporting the temperature at least 20 degrees warmer than the actual coolant temp.
