cold starting problems
Posted: Thu Nov 30, 2006 8:01 am
Hey,
Recently I brought a 91 hardtop sierra good little beast just kept over heating on me, had a faulty water pump. So I got new timing belt and water pump replaced them everything was fine. Set the timing right etc. till the next morning when the motor was cold. It starts like a pig sits around 200-300rpm spluttering and running rich, black smoke out the exhaust. If you rev it up a bit it comes good after about 2min.
Anyone have any idea what would have caused this problem. Was prefect till I did timing belt and water pump (doesn’t over heat now at idle)
Thanks.
Luke
