Hi all, had a quick search and seen what could be a couple of problems I think my car may have but need a second opinion.
Basically, my car has a bit of trouble firing up. It cranks fine, just wont catch for a bit and when it does it runs lumpy as **** and a niice ploom of soot comes out the back. Now I know it is running overly rich at start, but why?!
Fuel economy remains perfect, no loss in power at all and when driving it is as smooth as eggs with NO smoke at all. It just doesn't like to start.
From what I have read, it could be a faulty coolant temp sensor or MAF - do you guys think that this is the case? If so, can you please link me with DIY replacement guides as I like to get my hands dirty
Thanks in advance!
