Hi there my car is stranded in a lot fortunately in walking distance to my house.
Symptoms are that it seems to start and run fin when cold about 10-15 minutes. It will then stall and then I cannot start the car. It does not smell like it is flood (actually cannot smell any fuel) The last time this happened it sat over night and then it started with no problems. I just changed the points although I do not think that was the problem I had never seen points that were not completely solid contact area the ones installed had a hole in the center so I replaced them. Thanks, Dan |

Try checking all of your FI electrical component connections & clean with a small wire brush if any corrosion at all.
When I lived near the beach out here in CA, the salt air would get in & corrode inside the connections, relay/resistor plugs ins at the relay box on the L side of engine compartment & at the ECU, which would cause me most similar problems. Also check fuel flow from pump if it runs then stalls. It may be that the cold start valve is compensating in the cold start mode, then something else in the EFI system which is either got a bad connection or failing kicks in & stalls it. |
