My car has had starting issues since I've had it, last summer was esp bad until I got the mix sorted. Then the autumn and winter came round and starting improved
so I thought no more of it.
Then as the temps picked up again this year poor starting re-appeared.
So it seems to be that warmer weather = poor starting on a "cold" engine. I could live with this knowing for half the year it wont really be a problem but I'd like to get this sorted out for once and for all if I can without spending big money.
Now any ideas from ppl who have had same symptoms? :)
I have thought about the OVP but I dont know whay ambient temps make a difference - I did dest the Relay
and the diode reading was varible, between 400-1500mv
which is the right range but like say the reading would'nt settle - it kept bouncing between the two numbers.

but its not yet much help. I think I may order a new OVP if I dont get a defintive answer they're not too expensive. The rough hot idle is wierd as it seems to have come on from nowhere. I disconnected the air-flow sensor Potentiometer to see if that might help then went for a 15 min spin but no better, though the car seemed to run nicer when on the move (a bit more oumph).
I disconnected the potentiometer on the air mass sensor its started first time everytime since. I dunno if I've been lucky or if the two are connected. I'll give it another day or two then re-connect and see if anything changes.
