Astra 1.4 8v having troubles starting fr - KeithP
Following on from my thread last week regarding my 1994 Astra 1.4 8v MPI C14SE, the car is having problems starting from cold. The car seems to continually keep flooding from cold, its only when the car is bump started that it will go (then works fine and turns back on straight away when warm). I have changed the HT leads, its had a recent Lambda sensor, I swapped the plugs back to the old ones (only removed previously purely due to servicing, but they were working fine when removed, so dont think it could be the plugs or could it?), it has a coil pack not a distributor. Its had a recent new battery. What could be wrong with it?
