i have this weird starting problem that till this day a just havnt been able to get fixed heres the symptoms

first thing in the morning the car will start like magic straght away

if the car is warmed up and i turn it off and leave it for an hour the car will just keep turning ova for a while and wont start untill i pump the accelerater then itl start

but if the car is warm then i turn it off then in a couple of seconds or minutes try and start it itl start fine again

its weird that if i pump the accelerator itl start after a bit thats weird for an injected car


ive changed the e-1o1 and the tacho moves when i try to start so i think that rules that out

i have cut the airbox but that was a long time before the problems started happening

it also has a bit of an ideling problem which i think is related if when the car is cold if i pump the accelerator the car will rev then die right down to 400rpms and then very slowly pics up



what do u guys think any ideas

check valve clearances.

Check the fuel press reg for diaphram leaks, make sure it's working well, check the idle speed control motor....theres a full procedure on adjusting it in some topic somewhere i wrote the peice so search under me maybe...

Just a starting point i guess....

when it just turns over and over....do you have to pumped it to get it to run, or over time will it start without it..??

maybe after a fair while of turning ova it might but itl really struggle to stay alive if i do it that way

im thinking it could be the fuel pressure reg why wuld this be causeing it
it funny u say that cause ever since i cleaned it that day it has been doin it

what about the injectors could they be stuffed

Its an old car with old injectors, sometimes pumping the accelerator will "loosen" the injectors and butterfly, its no biggy, I have to do the same for cold starts.

g,day my old cordia used to do the same i used to work for mitsu it a common problem its got to do with the old school computer iit struggles to compensate for mods

Yeh this makes sense, ever since I got my cooler on it takes about 3-4 secconds to turn over, I think it has something to do with the length of the pipe, all the old stale air would still be in the pipes and it takes a while for fresh air to get in.
