the delta force 0 Posted November 27, 2006 I'm going mad trying to find out what the problem is.... Scenario: My 1990 16v Corrado starts perfectly in the morning after being left all night or even longer, even if I park up for a few minutes and then start it again it's fine. However, if I leave the car for an approx 1-4 hours and then try and start it, it either takes a while to turn over or starts and cuts out straight away. I then have to really rev it after turning the ignition key in order for it to get going..... I have no idea what the problem is so any help would be great... Thanks Stefan :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted November 27, 2006 Are the fan and fuel pump running on when the engine is off? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crasher 3 Posted November 28, 2006 Could be injector leaking causing a loss of holding pressure in the lines which makes the fuel boil and vaporize and that causes an air lock in the lines. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the delta force 0 Posted December 3, 2006 The fan runs as it should but as far as I am aware the fuel pump isn't running. Are the fan and fuel pump running on when the engine is off? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the delta force 0 Posted December 3, 2006 Still teaching myself on the in's and out's of the car, stupid question but I'm guessing this would be visible? I can't see any leaks.
