having recently made my purchase i am really happy
however, it starts very poorly from cold. Its an auto, and it turns over fine, fires then dies. 6 times to start this morning. It sounds really grumbly at initial tickover once i get it going and on pressing the throttle it seems to want to die and the revs drop off if not careful
however after a few mins it tick over lovely at 900 rpm, and doesnt miss a beat.
Basically to start it i am turing over and having to rev it a little to hold the revs, but even then it can die under throttle
It is due a servive so will be getting this done this week (full service and will change plug leads too), but is there anything else that you think would need looking at?? is there a history of cold start probs and any info on causes/solutions would be very much appreciated
Thanks once again
