3.0L cold start question
« on: Sep 23, 2009, 06:46:08 PM »
when i start my truck after sitting over night or if i let it cool down 100%, it starts right up but stuters a little like its only on 2 cylinders then 5-10 seconds later it fires and runs perfectly... anyone have ideas?? only does it when its completyly cold.. when the engine is warm,  it fires with no problems...

could be the cold start injector.
Dr.Maxwe001 – well i have a 15 gal compressor now and if I gett he 60  and then use the 15 as a reserve that wil give me 75 gal  thats close to 80 isnt it ?

You  know, try and spray starting fluid in there after the air cleaner and see what it does.

i will pull that cold start off this weekend and look at it.... i will try spraying starter fluid also, its only after it has sat over night or so.. it just sputters like its not getting fuel or its only on 2 cylinders then it fires and runs perfect

my thought on the starting fluid is, its like bypassing the cold start injector.
