1996 1.8 Starting problem,please help!! - tallgraham
Hi all
I have a 1.8 ADZ motor in my car,when I try to start it in the morning it winds over and over for ages then picks up on one cyl and fires up,runs a bit "fluffy" for a few seconds and all is well,drive it to work,leave all day,starts fine,leave over night and same problem.
I have re-placed plugs ,dizzy cap,rotor,leads and the injector unit rubber gasket,which was split in two,which I though was the problem but no,still the same.
There is a bit of oil around from the breather on the injector area,could this be messing things up?
Thanks!

Coolant temp sensor may not be showing ecu an accurate reading, i.e not cold enough. Consequently insufficient enrichment ("choke") is applied. I'll try and remember to check AutoData for correct voltage readings at a given temperature for you to check.
