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???

Several years ago I had a similiar problem; I had gone through everything, even the TB and Oil Filler gaskets.
It turned out the FI boot between the AFM and TB was cracked. Ended up repairing it with some rubber wetsuit repair glue. |
