Hi,
Ive read alot about peoples cars not starting first time in the mornings but working second with no problems whatsoever. Just very recently as the mornings seem to have got a little colder ive had the same issue.
Last night i thought id pop the bonnet open and have a quick check.
In this check i did the following:
Removed TDC sensor and cleaned it up and cleaned the contacts on the loom.
Checked battery ampage which was on 4.
Cleaned up all other visible wiring loom connectors.
Again this morning the car started first time but it struggled to stay alive, with it idling between 900-1000rpm where id imagine it should be on overrun due to a cold start and idling at 1200rpm. It very nearly almost cut out.
Now this isnt an immediate problem as such but it certainly could eventually be alot worse.
Im not convinced its the TDC sensor causing this issue....does anyone else have any ideas? Car runs like an idley POS in the mornings, but once upto operating temperature it has no faults whatsoever.
Any ideas anyone?
