centralized(m)

where is this cold start sensor located??? been looking for it cause i feel dat could be d cause of the hard starting. Also do anybody feels/think the coolant temperature sensor could be bad also?

centralized(m)

That's a lot or problems....Just my 2cents here but since this car was switched from carb to fuel injected I am getting the impression that this wasn't wired properly. The bad mileage and rough idle with extra load can be a combination of oxygen sensor and IACV sensors. If you give the car any extr...

any other suggestions?

if u switched from a carb engine to FI, did u change the fuel pump? if ur still using the pump for the carb engine that could be the prob there I think the fuel pump was changed. The carb may have been using a manual pump or out of tank pump while the ga15de has an electric pump placed in the tank....

centralized(m)

I WAS TOLD THESE WAS POSSIBLE CULPRITS...any further suggestions and answers welcomed
1) Seem like the electrician put the engine idle up on the indicator instead of the headlamps...
2) It also seems like the kick-down cable need re adjusting for kick down and smoother gear change....
