Around that temperature the engine (LSN) starts to sound way too rich and then it just dies. no idle increase or anything, just slows down for 2 seconds and then dies

Lean out your LSN a few hours, when it's cold the idle will always seem high so try not to adjust the idle to be stable till the engine is nice and hot. Have you leaned the LSN or HSN at all yet? If not then that is what you need to do for sure. The needles are always very rich at stock settings and will need to be leaned to keep it running when your driving it around.
