krnau 0 Posted May 19, 2008 hello. Well sorry if I use invented - words :camp: I own a KR and some times has starting up problems. At first, it seems it works at 3 cilynders, and after 10-12seconds, wow, it works well. It usually happens when engine's oil's temperature is between 122 and 176 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattkh 0 Posted May 19, 2008 Hi The oil temp cant be 176f when you start it frst time. What is the mileage? Does it rev high when you start first thing ? It could be a lot of things. As for the temp sensors there are 3 spade connectors near the dizzy. The wires can be swapped. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krnau 0 Posted May 20, 2008 the mileage is 14,000 since the engine was rebuilt. first time, temp is not that high. I mean, it is that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

colinstubbs 0 Posted May 21, 2008 Valvers don't always fire-up on 4 cylinders first thing, mine has sporadically started like that for 10 years! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krnau 0 Posted May 22, 2008 well, mine, starts like 'TRAC - TRAC - TRAC - TRAC- TRAC" for about 10 seconds (in which I have to maintain the accelerator pedal), then, suddenly, stops doing this sh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colinstubbs 0 Posted May 22, 2008 Mine normally turns over and fires okay, but then it may run on 3 cylinders for 30 secs or so, bit of right boot blippage normally sorts it. 8) No idea about your problem sorry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
