1975 Ljet 1.8l. The car starts and runs fine in cold weather. When it is warm, the engine cranks and cranks and will not start. Use a little starting fluid, it starts, but unless I keep my foot on the accelerator, it will stall until it warms up. Head temperature sensor???

Thanks for the help. I'll get my vacuum gauge out tomorrow along with a can of carb cleaner. But why does it start right up and run fine in cold weather and run like crap when the weather is warm???

Could be the extra air from the AAR and leak act together; but when it’s hot, it doesn’t like the extra air ? Does the AAR work ? Easy to test....... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
