Hello,
I‘ve already mentioned this issue before in my newbie post. But on my drive to work this morning (about 10 miles, 20 minutes). The coolant temperature never went above 70C. When I got out of the car, engine running, I could hear the cooling fan was on. I have also noticed in the past on previous warm starts, the engine doesn’t start as ’normal’ with its usual kick, it’s more subdued. A few weeks ago, the car wouldn’t start at all when I stopped off at the shop, it just spun over. The only way I could get it started was by feathering the throttle, which would suggest to me it’s possibly over fuelling. On Wednesday, I replaced the coolant temp sensor, cooling fan resister and the auxiliary belt.
Any help Or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
