Blanket repair fail...
Had the tools out yesterday & done a pretty much blanket repair on the fueling sensors - coolant temp & O2 sensors with new plugs, along with the MAF last week.
The problem has become worse ...
This morning when cold it really struggled to start & smelt of fuel once it did - was running poorly for around 2 miles & then once warm she was back on form.
Can a dodgy MAF cause this as the cold start issue only arouse after fitting it ?
Thing is, I am 99% sure my old MAF was failing as it drives much better when warm & up through the gears it feels & sounds better than it ever did...
Any advice most welcome

Cheers guys,
Think the coil & leads are about the only things I haven't replaced !
Was just a bit confusing as the cold start/over fueling when cold only started when put MAF on
