Local help required for 1.7 DL
Posted: 22 May 2006 01:04 am
Asking a big favor. My 340 1.7 DL has now done 1200 miles in my ownership. However I have a small problem.
From cold it starts fine with the choke. Once warm and you take the choke off it still runs fine once you lift the rev's. In taffic it hunts and you need to catch it just right to pull away.
Also starting when warm is a pig. It does start but it uses a load of fuel.
I need someone who knows what there doing to have a look please. I personaly feel it's something to do with the choke. Not sure that it's fully off when it's pushed in.
I'm not an idiot regarding engine's but I'm not sure and it's my get to work transport. I could make it a lot worse.
If you feel you can help please send me a PM.
Thanks.
Bob.
