Hello scholars and masochists.
I’m requesting help on solving the issue of excessive cranking on start-up. Not once since I bought the car has it ever fired right up like others described for their cars. I had hoped that this issue was related to the other issues I’ve solved with the help of my friends here, but no luck. The behavior remains unchanged. To start this off, I rigged a little hidden fuel pressure gauge to the car so that you all can see for yourself. For the context of this attempt, the engine is cold at around 60F, I did not touch the throttle and the ignition was in the on position prior to cranking. https://youtu.be/DTTQ1zQJkJo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTTQ1zQJkJo Edit: moving on to a new phase at post #152 http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&...t&p=2995793 Please advise and thanks in advance.
