Hi Shansa, I would suggest you take the vehicle for a diagnostic scan. That will determine and pin point the problem. I would think that if the vehicle is fitted with the constant injection type of system, the problem could be flooding. If that is the case it will be better for a new fuel distributor to be fitted. If someone has tried to adjust the unit, it needs to be taken to a technician to reset the delivery valve setting, if not, its probably showing signs of wear. The symptoms you describe are common to flooding and what would happen if the fuel is wetting the plugs and stopping ignition. The time elapse you relate would give enough time for the fuel to evaporate and then allow the engine to start. Regards Johngee10
Testimonial: "Hi Jogngee10. I haven't use this FixYa website for a long time, and i forgot that i have it. Now i opened again and I saw that you have given me advice for the simptoms for my car. And you are right. I have fixed that problem last year. And that was distributer problem. Mechanic changed distributer cap and problem solved. but after i spent 800 changing petrol pumps for nothing. Thank you very much for your right suggestion but I should open this site earlier. If you were near me, I would shout the lunch. Thank you very much."
