hi all. my 08 ducato x250 -3L started ok when cold but run it for miles then stop it would turn over but not start leave it to cool down & it started straight away apparently reading on the m/home forum its another fiat thing we have to contend with ( techno 100 put me right good man ) up to now started ok when hot touch wood got a new fiat one £17 the only difference I could see was water had been dripping from the pipe to the heater inlet which lands on the gear box & earth strap check out the photo not a lot to see I know but it seems to work P.S I seem to be having hot starting problems with unloading photo will try later

Good result. Does this sound familiar https://www.fiatforum.com/ducato/424191-160-manual-non-starter-sort.html
