HOT START PROBLEM

Post by mozzer »

Hello well the T25 ownership continues to go from bad to worse but hey ho ........

Started to have real trouble starting from hot and not as brisk starting from cold battery sounds strangled (having it checked) but it does turn the starter ok now my van is a 1.9 DG carb with and LPG conversion...... I have read about a temp sensor being the source of hot starting probs can any one tell me if this applies to the carb model and where the temp sensor is and how it affects hot starting......


sorry for all the questions....... :run

Hi yes that's the way I start it but it takes a fair bit of cranking before it fires up
