Now if it starts, it won't start if I turn it off, unless I put my foot to the floor. Mechanic thinks it is the cold start valve/injector.

Can anyone shed some light on this for me. I don't have much cash to get this fixed.

Thanks
no such thing as a cold start valve. cold starting is done by the ECU chucking more fuel in.
