Hi all,
When I got my +8, it started very well. During he last days, I noticed, that it had to rev a bit longer, before the engine fired. But it still did. Later, it needed two or three attempts, especially when warm. Today, after a drive of about 50 Kilometers, it needed more attempts, but eventually it started. After coming home, I gave it another try, but it refused to start, even after some cooling down time.
What has to be said is, that once the engine runs, it runs, it runs very well.
As suggested
here I already checked, if the mass airflow sensor is not grounded but everything OK. (It‘s called „air flow meter“ in my car bur to my understanding, it should be the same thing, isn‘t it).
Could it be possible, that the spark is too „weak“ when the starter motor is turning ant the battery is not fully charged? The battery is brand new, by the way. Now I‘m loading it. If it starts well, with a full battery, I probably found the problem.
If not, do you have any ideas?
Thanks for you replies.
Sunny greetings,
Ivo
