Have bought 2001 Sei with mpi, 82K miles, to accompany my existing (but more ancient Sei)
-What great little cars these are!!
However my newer purchase runs on 3 at startup from cold, but only for around 10 -20 sec, then the 4th cuts in and engine runs absolutely perfectly from then on.
Have put in new ign leads, and new spark plugs, (which made slight improvement) also have swapped HT coils from my other Sei but latter made no difference..
No sign of head gasket ..ie engine oil remains pristine -(no sign of mayo), and no coolant loss.
Looking at other correspondence seems the ICU might be favourite here? It is bit difficult for me to get the car analysed, but guess I may have to...
Any suggestions appreciated..
