This is aimed at those of you that have some knowledge in modern engine management systems.
My dad's 1991 214 (single point injection) has developed a strange habit.
When the engine is warm, and left for about half to one hour to cool, has some difficulty in starting. Actually it will just start and then it will die immediately. The only way to overcome this is to use the throttle. The engine will start with the throttle depressed. As soon as it starts it idles and drives normally. Otherwise, it will start absolutely normal from cold or normal running temperature, and it drives OK without any hesitation or anything. The problem occurs only when half warm.
Has anybody come across a similar experience?
Any thoughts?
Thanks is advance,
