you sure its only when cold? if only when hot its probably the water temp sensor. happend to my car a while ago. bitch to start (when hot) but when running its ok. i had my suspitions, do i went to I.V.C. (independant vauxhall centre) wacked the computer on there, aparently my engine was engine -200 degrees when id been driving for 30 mins! so i was running on permenante choke, got a new sensor fron halfords (bout 4 quid) fitted it, problem gone. had to drain the water tho, which was a bitch. engine warning light dont cum on either. that was on a cav tho. | |

theres sumin wrong with my car, when i go to start it, it does start but really struggles and then cuts out. if u rev it quite a bit and keep the revs up u can get it to move without stalling but as soon as u let em go down it stalls. if u can manage to keep car going like nearly stalling for a few mins the problem goes away, until u get in2 car for next time. please help :boggle: |
