1.0 starting problem

Post by rossbow »

My 1.0 has an annoying problem. doesn't matter if its cold or hot it takes quite a few attempts to fire up and when it does it runs great. sometimes it will fire straight away but most of the time it struggles. it turns over fine but coughs and farts, it also sounds like it is igniting in the manifold. it has a new temp sensor, i have swapped some bits from my other 1.0. cam sensor, throttle body, ing coil. fitted second hand fuel rail with injectors. seems to get fuel fine and there are no codes. aaahhhhh. anyone had similar?

Ignition switch can cause this issue. could also be the crank position sensor (G28)
