Its 2:30am and I finish work, shoot over to my car to make a quick get away and the ******* didnt start, it seemed to turn over and then die, I have to rev the second time to keep it alive.. this made worse by the fact I have two minutes earlier phoned the Police to catch some ******** who decided to steal from us and had climbed in the the back yard!!

I was keeping my eye out for him and the car let me down

 

ive had it before where my car didnt start first time. Now allways let the fuel pump prime and havent had any problems yet.

 

Tip noted thanks

 

i noticed that the other day, if i try and just turn the key straight away the car starts but then has to gather up the revs as if its about to stall.

i tried waiting for the fuel pump to prime and it seems much better.

Spot on, sat for 30 hours and started without a fuss, I let it do its thing with the fuel pump... Cheers

 

It is not only with scoobies, my pug did this also.... just wait for the pump a few secs

 

I learnt this little known fact when i owned an escort turbo, always do as habit now think is prob better for the car in the long run as well

Edited to say : 2:30am finish work, **** a lot of that. Do you work in a brothel?

 

I wish.. no I'm one of those students that has to work in ASDA,

Paid by the hour so work more

 

only one word covers that:


UNLUCKY!!!!

 

And me too
