I think I found my hot start problem... If I get the car good and warm, shut it off and go into a store or something, it will not restart unless I let it sit for 30 minutes or so. I initially thought I was vapor locking, but it would happen on relatively cool days (75 degrees). I decided to try something else, because it didn't "feel" like vaporlock, it felt like flooding. So, I visegripped the fuel line to the cold start injector. I haven't had the problem since.
What controls the cold start injector firing? The car isn't running rich all of the time, so I think the injector is turning off appropriately, but what causes it to fire at all? Thanks |

The sensor can be tested for ohm resistance at ambient and at freezing to see if it is good or bad...
It could also be the actual CSV-injector that is open or leaking and dumping extra fuel whether the sensor is completing ground or not.. you could take the fuel feed off of it and by-pass it completely as mentioned... Off topic: My sensor is failing the cold test and I need an early style one...some one sell me a single wire sensor for the CSV please!!! brant |
