Hi All,
Having problems starting my 2007 Grande Punto 1.2 Petrol from cold. It turns over and fires up ok but then dies immediately. The temp gauge then shows a warm engine (even though it's cold) and the fan comes on. It takes 5 or 6 attempts to get it to start up and stay running and when it eventually does stay running the choke doesn't kick in so idles slowly. I have to leave it running like this for a few minutes 'til it's properly warmed up (touching the throttle stalls it again). Once warm though, it runs fine all day and starts no problem, until the next morning.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Dave
