I want a manual fith injector 200 1981

I had this same issue with a BMW 320i, had trouble hot starting. BMW did a TB and released a "kit" that was an impulse relay much as you describe, BUT I didn't want to shell out the $130 they wanted for it. The service manager agreed that it was way overpriced and said , "Just run 12 volts to a push button switch, and then to the cold start squirter and if it won't start give it a squirt. That's what we did before the hot start kit came out!"

It would be good to troubleshoot the accumulator issue as Alex suggests but a $2 switch might give you "warm fuzzies" just like your old choke handle did!

Putting on nomex drawers in anticipation of flames directed my way for daring to suggest "rigging" something...
