PVR-6 intermitant start problems(264GL) 200 1978

posted by  someone claiming to be Peter on  Wed Oct 30 13:29 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Hi all,
I have a intermitant starting problem with my 78 264 GL. The problem seems to only occur when the car is hot and has been sitting for more then half an hour. The engine just turns over and over for maybe 15-30 seconds (too long)then starts fine. i have noticed that if the car does not start first turn (it wonts to start first turn)it exibit the above symptoms.
It might only not start 2 in 10 times
I have replaced the fuel pump relay and also setup a test loop on a toggle swith for the fuel pump but it seem to make no differnce.
I have also replaced the fuel accumulator (which a mechanic ashored we would fix the problem)
any help would be greatly appreciated
Thnks
Peter
