Ok i have been looking at this car over the summer . Originally had a cold start problem with misfire on startup. Diagnosed water contamination in the past so fitted new injectors and KMI rebuilt metering head, flushed and cleaned system and tank, problem solved. It then developed a hesitation under acceleration so new leads, caps,rotor arms (twin dissy), plugs . It now starts from cold , and if switched off when hot will start up immediately no problem but if its left for a couple of hours when hot it starts up rough, like the injectors have drained off. It never fails to start. I seem to remember the RS Turbo's with the same system having a problem with the diaphragm in the accumulator. Has any one had this with this system ? or car? or any ideas where to look next? Car is away in Durham at the moment but will be back in the next couple of weeks. Thanks in advance
