Angry Post start or Compression???

Copied from the wolf3d forum
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My FD is being a bitch ! she starts right up.....cold...... once reaches 70 deg, f o r g e t i t!!

She has a hint of firing up but just wont go.... rpm will pick up till say 300, but wont pick up further.

This started happening after my rebuild. i reduced the fuel pulse addon, increased it, reduced the overall trim, increased it.... but she wont start after 70degC. I was told to drive her....so the seals seat up,(in fact i only risked some 60 km) i cant afford to have her stall and blocking everyone! any recomendations? i am willing to consider easy start spray for the emergency.... but it seems to be compression.

Anyone had this issue? and how did you overcome it?

damn she's bein a frustrated bitch!

Have you removed the front bumper recently? Also if it is below 70c and you turn the headlights on what happens?

There are some grounding issues that show only when the car is warmed up. I thought you might have that problem
