Default Poor Starting

Anyone have a problem with starting after the engine has been stalled...mines a bugger to get going if I have stalled it. It's happened a few times now and only way I can get it going is to turn the starter in 1st gear and with the car moving forward it eventually fires....

Have same problem, been told it could be down to over fueling. Not sure though.

Also have probs w v cold starts.

Mine is a MY98 UK Turbo wagon, with TOAD immobilisor (which some times kicks in when i stall - could be related?)

Only once did it fail to start on a very cold morning...and I started it in gear otherwise starts first time unless I stall the bugger.
