I know this question has come up a hundred billion times already...
It's just started getting hard to start too, so I'm thinking ignition module.
Up until this new developement it would start fine, but would stall if I tried to idle when it was at about 80 degrees. If I could keep it going beyond that (high revs of just keep moving) it'd go just fine. It won't always start again either. I can usually roll start it, or jump it, if I have cooperative people around. If I wait and let it cool down it will usually start again of it's own accord...this usually takes about the same amount of time as an AA call out.
If I stop for too short a time (5-10 minutes) it won't strat again until it's a lot cooler...about 60-70 degrees.
It seems to have a faulty idle unit, but I that doesn't seem to explain the symptoms.
HT leads are ok, spark plugs should be good (quite new and they didn't make a difference), does it no matter how I drive, worse when the weather is hot, but does it all year round.
I don't have much money for parts or to pay a mechanic so I don't want to be replacing parts unnecessarily. :bang:
Help?
