Starting issue 200 1987

Hello to all,

I recently had the idle adjuster and temp sensor replace to help with a starting issue. Once it is warmed up there is no problem. If cold, then it takes 3-4 times of cranking over the engine several times just to get started. Doesn't seem to be a battery or starter issue. Would cleaning the rotor cap help? ANy suggestions? I am having the outsource mechanic syndrome of "replace this even with our diagnostics" claimed by the Volvo shop to no avail.

Regards, Christopher
P.S. Recently bought CHilton's Volvo manual and intend on pursuing a complete set of tools. Oh, and any good volvo websites?
