This morning and tonight starting the tipo took ages - like about 10 seconds of cranking with the accelerator to the floor.

Once started it was chuggy and tried to stall until warm. Any ideas? It turned over fine so no problem with lack of charge.. I'm confused about where to start looking for issues.

fuel filter possibly?

if it happens again, try cranking the fuel pump a couple of times with turn of key then start it

my cinq occasionally does this when warm, think its the fuel filter, if i let it build up extra fuel it'll start first time :cool:
