Re: Fault Scenario #1

Gregory, When was the last time you had a tune up and the air flow 
was adjusted. I hear people replaceing injectors all the time and 
most of the time they are not the problem. They can also be cleaned 
with Berrymans B12. The #1 culprit is the accumulator. If that has 
been replaced then the cold start valve sounds it's working when 
cold. Has it been wired direct. Is it working hot also. This could 
also cause flooding. Are you giving the car gas when trying to start 
it, if so don't. Even in Texas I sometimes run the Hot Start relay 
all the time, but that is because my car is kept in top tuned shape 
since I'm always working on it and it starts quick. We can go deeper 
into the fuel system with sensors, but most of all that is in the 
workshop books. You may hear me say this a lot. But run a can of 
Berrymans B12 thru the gas. If the control plunger is sticking, it 
will disolve the varnish.
