> Hi all - Spring issues solved!
>
> However, this week, I'll be mostly having Warm Start Issues.
>
> 1) The car always starts from cold, without a hint of a problem.
>
> 2) The car always starts again when it's hot, if you stop and
> immediately re-start
>
> 3) It absolutely WILL NOT start if it's been hot, is
> parked, you nip
> into the shops to get some flowers for Valentine's day, get
> back in the car,
> and need to get home sharpish.
>
> In fact, the more I think of it, it's often struggled
> starting after a
> medium length run if it hasn't had the chance to cool down again.
>
> A couple of things I've noticed:
>
> 1) Occasionally I hear the ~1second buzz of the fuel pressure
> accumulator system when I turn the key to the first position,
> but not always
> (especially with repeated trying).
>
> 2) When I lift the lid, with the ignition on, on some occasions
> there's an electrical buzz from the region of the LH block,
> but again, not
> always.
>
> 3) I know the coil connections are crap, and I'm on to it!
>
> Can anyone shed any light at all please? I ended up having
> two very long
> walks yesterday!
>
> And finally, a bit of advice - after a week or so, if you've had the
> Auto-Trans sump off, give the bolts an extra tweak as the new
> cork gasket
> compresses, the bolts loosen, and the fluid wants out!
>
> Cheers folks,
