Sorry to say still missing and blowing smoke on first start up after sitting for long periods.

Damn damn!!

Another point ive noticed is that when first starting and i shut the engine down to reglow it cranks slightly longer maybe sec or 2.
Fuel pressure problem maybe????


It is much better than it was so there was a problem with the glows.


I will wait for this Melbourne weather to settle and then go over/under it.

I Start new job Monday and will be getting company car.

Cruiser to be sold in 2 or so months so have a little time to sort it out.
Will be very sad to see such clean cruiser go.

If They sit for Awhile they will tend to splutter for a bit
But could be fuel issue
Also look at putting A fuel additive as it may have a bacterial problem from sitting which is making the fuel go off
