hello to you. i have a 96 sti import and it starts fine first thing in the morning but just recently i have been noticing that when i drive and the temp is at normal, after turning the engine off for example to fill up the bloody thing will not start you have to wait about 10 minutes before it will fire up. i do not have a turbo timer fitted could this be the problem ?? i look forward to any reply as im getting a bit worried now

many thanks
james

 

sounds like the crank sensor

 

right ....few Q`s

has the engine warning light been on ??
when was last service .....which included plug change ?

when you say you have to w8 10 minz .......does the engine actually turn over in this time but wont fire ..........or is it completly lifeless ??

 

hi no the waning light has not come on and i dont know when the last service was i have only had it 3 months

 

does it have an aftermarket ecu?
was reading about enrichment last night funnily enough...

 

I will go with scooby boy
Crank sensor, do a search, i think you will find this is a common fault.
