Bits involved in starting an engine
My 1997 uk turbo has been having problems starting first thing in the morning
when cold, sometimes it will struggle, but start, other times is will feel as if it
needs a few revs, then dies, however trying it again straight away, it starts.
I've had the cold start checked and it seems fine, I have an airbox with a K
and N filter.
Things I can rule out:
MAF
Spark plugs
Coolant temperature sensor
Fuel pump
Injectors
Battery
So what else is there that is involved in the start up?
Thanks

annoying isn't it, especially with the winter coming up,
that's why I was wondering exactly what is involved so I can go through the
list, if it was lose plugs, wouldn't it do it all the time??
It's okay, I'm planning for the future... !
But would like to fix this
