RE: [SPOC] HARD STARTS WITH NEWLY BROKEN IN MOTOR

55-60 psi for idle?? Wow that is high!   I only hit that kind of pressure under WOT and around 75psi when spraying nitrous. You pressure at idle should be around 35 +- a few psi.   Anyways…when the engine is cold, the fuel would have had some time to dissipate from the cylinder. Once the engine is warm, any excess fuel will sit there for a while and can be causing your hard starts. I would warm the car up….let it sit for about 15mins…pull the plugs and check them, but also check your cylinders for raw fuel….       Scott W. Thomas, President S.W. Thomas Consultants, Inc.

And i am running about 55-60 psi on my fuel system and yes stock injectors and a SDS 2 extra injector setup. But if it was the fuel why would it only do it after it is warmed up? And yes all the plugs look good. Tom
