[QUOTE="solarice, post: 1689, member: 86"] well some of you may remember on the old forum, i said i was having trouble getting the car started when cold sometimes when hot and i assumed it maybe an electrical fault requiring further investigation. by the way - when you put the ignition on the fuel pump would creak and moan (like adandoned boats do in the films) and when starting it would just turn over and over and over, then fire up creating a big cloud of crap out of the exhaust. well, i decided after checking spark plugs, leads etc. I would try running some optemax (have i spelt that right?) through before going any further just in case it had somthing to do with the fuel / petrol station id been using, and after two tanks i can honestly say my car is now 100% better starts first time every time (touch wood) and has more acceleration than ever before. Result :laugh: now for those that have read this far, i congratulate you :) hope this may help anyone else who may be having similar problems. Kris. [/QUOTE]
