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???

I had a problem with a '75 L-jet 1.8 where it ran great at first and then after 20 minutes when the car warmed up it ran like crap. After replacing the cht and vacuum lines with no difference I replaced the maf (or whatever you call it) and that took care of it.

Was the part you replaced over $300? |
