right my rst takes about 9 - 11 seconds to crank and then it starts after a little warm up starts straight away any one know why this is? or any sugestions?

advance thanks

 

Have you got a fuse in the heated seat slot?? worth a try mine was like yours when it was cold i put a fuse in the heated seat slot and now it starts on the key everytime

 

il have a quick look see give us a few mins worth a try

 

my fuse was in i took it out and its starts fine now put it back in started cranking for ages again took out then kick start wots that heated seat fuse got to do with any thing? is it connected to ecu or?

wen i got the loom there was no fuse but i put one in thought some one took itout gues it was out for a reason

 

It's got something to do with the fuel management i think but dont quote me on it as im not 100% sure all i know is when i put one in mine it started on the key and has done ever since

 

rst loom is so silly urs worked wen put in myns fine wen pulled out wot the floof

 

It is strange some people say to unplug the cold start valve if your cars hard to start and/or lumpy when first started when i done that mine wouldn't start at all but others have done it and it's cured there problem

 

ok i think its got to go back in safe chav told me its for the fuel ecu opps

 

I thought it was

 

its bugging me

 

Try unpluging the cold start valve see what happens

 

same thing

 

il have a mess around 2morro its late everyones gonna wake up some loud escort

 

Whats the spark plugs like are there good or old that could make it hard to start first thing if there old.

 

there the 3 stem ngk R ones brand new and new uprated leads safe chav sed it may be due to not having a setup so i think il start savign up

 

Could need a good set up if it aint been done for a while always good to have it checked on the RR any way

 

yh basically ive just got the engine loom and ecu from a unfinished rst van the engines had alot done to it ported head bigger forged pistons etc it had a cossie turbo on it but was gone so i used my rst t3 so i i really do think it was never setup

 

I think it's best you get it done then

 

i think so to
