    Default 3sgte warm start problem

    Hi Guys,

    The GT4 is cranking way too long when its warm before it starts.
    I've found that if I give it a short stab of full throttle it helps but not much.

    When I cold start it fires straight away, so I assume the cold start injector is working.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance

    Yer, done that. I know its a bit old n all but I love it all the same. It still has great specs compared to a lot of modern cars it goes hard, runs cheap an cost me f__ all. I can use it in the bush, camp in it and it doesn't take much effort for upkeep. I saw the wheels story on the new toyota two door it still doesn't match up when you consider the 4wd.Rabble, rabble, rabble. Anyways, any other ideas?
