As described! What is up with this situation? Engine runs beautiful when warmed up, will restart no problem if It has been shut off for even a few hours. Kudos to the battery and starter as I have tried to start it normally when it has been sitting for a few days, won't catch, thank goodness I live on a hill, coast down the hill a bit, put her in 3rd gear pop the clutch and vrooom! Have done this 6 times now!

Turned the key to the on position, gave 3 good pumps on the accelerator, half throttle position then tried to start the car, she started! A little rough til warmed up but once warm she runs beautiful, I can live with this!

When it warmed up, everything is good except a little rough or low idle at first but when I drove it for a mile or 2. Idle will drop to around 850 rpm. |
