<x-charset iso-8859-1>This early fall I tested and reconnected my cold start valve for the really cold days here in Omaha . I removed the temp sensor stuck it in the freezer checked the resistance, found it very low like 30 ohms. I let it warm up and it was up around 2500 ohms. (If I remember right). I the removed the CSV attached it to a large glass jar and shorted its temp lead to ground. I turned over the starter and it gave a nice mist of fuel while cranking. I assumed all was well. Not so. A couple weeks ago when it got cold my wife couldn't start the car. When I got home I couldn't either. I pulled the CSV. Connector, and after some more cranking, it started. Apparently it was flooded. Is the injector worn out? I don't understand that, as it doesn't get used much compared to a cylinder injector. Any input hear beyond Bentley? Or better still do I even need it? Cheers Peter Legault 73 SB ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
