Hi all,
Had recent problems getting my 340 to start. Engine will turn over but will not catch/start. When it comes closest to starting the whole car jolts/judders to a halt. I have changed the plugs and checked the carb but it's still giving me trouble. Any ideas what might be causing the problem?
Thanks
Jamie

Re: Starting problems 1.4 340
Hello, it sounds like it might be dodgy leads and/or distributor cap. Can you check if there is a spark? Does spraying it with WD40 improve the starting?? Hope this helps, bogbasic.
